Support for OpenSSL 3.0.x libraries from UNIX operating systems

If you install the master domain manager on recent UNIX operating systems, you can use the OpenSSL 3.0.x libraries provided with the operating system. The list of UNIX operating systems whose libraries you can use is as follows:
  • Ubuntu 22
  • AIX 7.3
  • Red Hat 9

This is useful in case a vulnerability is discovered in a library: you can upgrade to a newer version and HCL Workload Automation can work seamlessly with the updated library.

To ensure HCL Workload Automation uses these libraries, always launch the installation or upgrade procedure from a brand new shell. You can also check the OpenSSL library currently in use with the which openssl command and check the OpenSSL version with the openssl version command.

If your operating system does not provide OpenSSL 3.0.x libraries, you can use the libraries packaged and installed with HCL Workload Automation.
