This limits the ability to update these platforms with SSH certificates, such as for applications/host and user SSH certificates

PROPOSED SOLUTION
vssh compiled for AIX , HP-UX and Solaris platforms as supported for current Venafi Agent scenarios

CURRENT ALTERNATIVES
No current workable alternative
