Yes, something changed.  The server certificate for the IBM server was set to 
expire soon, so it was replaced last week.  Unfortunately, the replacement is 
issued by the "DigiCert Global Root G2'" root instead of the "DigiCert Global 
Root CA" root.  Therefore, you need to connect the G2 root certificate to your 
keyring that also contains your certificate generated by Shopz.  By the way, 
the IBM download servers already use certificates issued by the G2 root, so you 
likely already have the G2 root in your security manager database. 

The SMP/E doc will be updated and refreshed next week, but in the meantime if 
you need help adding the G2 root, you can find information in these two topics:
