Error description
Error messages seen in the dsmerror.log of the client : ANS1579E GSKit function gsk_secure_soc_init failed with 401: GSK_ERROR_BAD_DATE and ANS1592E (RC-362) Failed to initialize SSL protocol. This is seen for nodes using client to client communications in proxy configurations especially for GUI interfaces which will display errors. For example, the node validation in the configuration tab of the Spectrum Protect for virtual Environments - Data Protection for VMware GUI will display the message : ANS1017E (RC-50) Session rejected: TCP/IP connection failure The reason is that the client certificate used for client to client SSL communications is expired and was not automatically renewed. Communications to the Spectrum Protect server are not affected as different certificate is used and therefore restore operations or backups (manual or scheduled) are not affected as long there is no client to client communication involved. Products affected: IBM Spectrum Protect Backup-Archive Client version 7.1 and 8.1 on Linux x86 and Microsoft Windows x64 platform. IBM Spectrum Protect for Virtual Environments: Data Protection for VMware version 7.1 and 8.1 on Microsoft Windows x64 and Linux x86_64 platforms. IBM Spectrum Protect for Virtual Environments: Data Protection for Microsoft Hyper-V version 7.1 and 8.1 on Microsoft Windows x64 platform. If you are using Backup-Archive Client 7.1 and 8.1, refer to APAR IT26545 Note 1: The Backup-Archive Client is a prerequisite to using the Data Protection for VMware version 7.1. In Data Protection for VMware environments, the Backup-Archive Client is also known as the data mover. Note 2: The Backup-Archive Client is a prerequisite to using the Data Protection for Microsoft Hyper-V versions 7.1 till 8.1.2. In Data Protection for Microsoft Hyper-V environments, the Backup-Archive Client is also known as the data mover. If you are using Data Protection for VMware 8.1, refer to APAR IT27761 If you are using Data Protection for Microsoft Hyper-V 8.1.4-8.1.6, refer to APAR IT26846 | MDVREGR - 8.1.2.0 5698ISMCL | Initial Impact: Medium Additional Keywords: tdp4ve tsm4ve proxy tdp exchange sql TS001284545 0732283
