I set up MQ channels with ssl and it works perfect.
I set up ssl with CRL and it works, I mean channels are running.

I can see in my LDAP logs that connection to LDAP from MQ is established.

Unfortunately I can not see in LDAP logs any query from MQ .

I was expected to see query for CRL result.

I think that my ldap configuration is ok because I've tested 2 scenarios.

1. Correct LDAP hostname -> channels are running
2. Incorrect LDAP hostname -> channels are retrying

Now every cert is ok for MQ server.

My questions are:

1. Is there any additional configuration I need to check cert from second side in LDAP CRL ?

2. Why during ssl handshake there is only LDAP binding from MQ with no LDAP query ?

Validating that the channel started and then didn't start when changing the LDAP was probably a pretty good test that things are working. From my personal experience, it was difficult to validate that things like OCSP and CRLs were working, since MQ ostensibly hides the details of how it works. For example, even if you turn on tracing, must of this CRL functionality appears to run under the SSL trace file with is left unformatted, even after running dspmqtrc. You may have to open a PMR with IBM and have them validate that things are working as expected, if you don't have an easy way of testing this yourself (e.g. revoking your certificate in the CRL and validating it is detected as revoked by MQ).
