				Hi
 
 
Does anyone have successfully setup the MQ ssl between VSE/ESA 2.7 and AIX server? My knowlegde on this area is limited.
 
 
I have being trying to get it running but not successfully.
 
We are running VSE/ESA 2.7 and TCP 150D.
 
 
Always get SSL Initialization failed in the VSE/ESA MQ system log.
 
 
What kind of cipher is support for the VSE/ESA?
 
 
Please advise and help. Need the advise urgently.
 
 
Thank you in advance. |

				Hi, 
 
 
Have you checked MQ error logs on both sides ?
 
 
Source of all my SSL problems was explained in MQ logs. _________________ Marcin |

				Hi marcin.kasinski
 
 
Yes, the log shown SSL initialization failed. 
 
Did you get the ssl channel up and running between vse/esa and aix?
 
Can you guide me.
 
 
Please advise
 
 
Thank you. |

No, 
 
 
I've never configured SSL between vse/esa and aix but I think now it doesn't matter in this situation.
 
 
I know that there is always additional info with SSL initialization failed error message 
 
 
- handshake
 
- lack of certificate
 
- ...
 
- different cipherspecs between qmgrs
 
- unsupported cipherspec
 
 
Check on both QMs
 
 
{MQDIR}/qmgrs/{QMNAME}/errors/ 
 
 
and 
 
 
{MQDIR}/errors/ _________________ Marcin |

				What have you done on the VSE side?  For example, have you created a keyring file (using keyman_vse, for example) and specified it in the global system definitions?  There
 
is a good amount of detail on settng up VSE SSL in the MQ VSE redbook (section 7.1);
