IT14552: DMPMQCFG COMMAND OUTPUTS SETMQAUT RECORDS WITH NO AUTHORIZATION SPECIFICATION

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• The dmpmqcfg command displays authority records with no
  authorization specification when run with -o setmqaut option.
  
  Example:
  
  setmqaut -m wmq1_d -n @CLASS -t channel -p  DomainA@GroupA
  
  If there is no auth specification then the command should
  display '+none' in the list of authorities.
  
  Example:
  setmqaut -m wmq1_d -n @CLASS -t channel -p    DomainA@GroupA
  +none
  

Local fix

• NA
  

Problem summary

• ****************************************************************
  USERS AFFECTED:
  MQ administrators using dmpmqcfg command to output the setmqaut
  records.
  
  
  Platforms affected:
  MultiPlatform
  
  ****************************************************************
  PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:
  An omission in the dmpmqcfg logic meant that when the the
  dmpmqcfg command was run with the -o setmqaut option, no
  authorization specification was output if the user did not have
  authority on the object being dumped. Accordingly, this was not
  the correct input to setmqaut, as it should have contained an
  authorization specification of "none" for that user.
  

Problem conclusion

• The code was modified to list  'none' in place of authorization
  specification if a user does not have any authority on a
  specific MQ object.
