Applying PTFs wrecks the Java certificate store

When we are applying PTFs then the Java certificate store is wrecked.

The certificates, we have added here, are removed and every time we have to remember to add all the certificates we have added. This should be changed so the installation of PTFs just modifyes the Java certificate stores and updates the necessary certificates.

    The CAAC has reviewed this IBM Idea and recommends that IBM not implement this request.

    Altering the system store is not a best practice as opposed to copying the store, altering the copy, and directing your application to the copy of the store.

    Background: The COMMON Americas Advisory Council (CAAC) members have a broad range of experience in working with small and medium-sized IBM i customers. CAAC has a key role in working with IBM i development to help assess the value and impact of individual IBM Ideas on the broader IBM i community and has therefore reviewed your Idea.
