I am working with out security folks also, they are requiring TLS 1.2 only connections, there's a local override file you can add to force all connections to TSL1.2, but be careful, if you use the JES2EDS (email delivery system) you also need to force TLS 1.2 via a SSH daemon or adding the TLS 1.2 parm in CEEPRMxx

for z/OS 2.3 and beyond

/global/zosmf/configuration - add

local_override.cfg

IZU_SSL_PROTOCOL=TSL1.2

if you need to force TLS 1.2 via LE

add

ENVAR=("GSK_PROTOCOL_TLSV1_2=ON")

I've tested with only the z/osmf local override file and this caused JES2EDS connections to fail.

there may be some other options, this is the only option that seemed to satisfy my security folks and still allow everything to work / connect

So I am no expert when it comes to certificates,  So maybe someone can shed 
some light for me.

By default z/OSMF is configured with a CA   or ZOSMFCA label.   That doesn't 
work or maybe seem to work for me. I can generate a client certificate from it 
and download to me PC but will never establish an SSL TLS 1.2 connection.  I 
also done have admin rights, so even if I could it would only be for me, at 
least I think.

So my corporate network team, gave me a root and immediate CA and then 
generated a client certificate for me.

I imported them to RACF as trusted and built my z/OSMF key ring off those, 
which seemed to work...

However now I am getting

[ERROR   ] CWPKI0022E: SSL HANDSHAKE FAILURE:  A signer with SubjectDN 
CN=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx my IP
The signer might need to be added to local trust store 
safkeyringhybrid://IZUSVR/IZUKeyring.IZUDFLT, located in SSL configuration 
alias izuSSLConfig.
The extended error message from the SSL handshake exception is: PKIX path 
building failed: com.ibm.security.cert.IBMCertPathBuilderException: unable to 
find valid certification path to requested target.

Which I guess makes sense because my network team gave me all the Certs.  But 
is there a way to resolve this so all users get a TLS 1.2 htps connection?
