APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • When individually removing all of an entity or principal's
    authorities for an object in MQ, the AUTHLIST property is
    displayed as blank, rather than NONE. The authorities are all
    enforced as intended, it is simply the display that is
    incorrect.
    

Local fix

  • Remove the authorities from the record using AUTHRMV(ALL) rather
    than removing them individually.
    

Problem summary

  • ****************************************************************
    USERS AFFECTED:
    Any users of MQ that remove all authorities individually from a
    principal or entity.
    
    
    Platforms affected:
    MultiPlatform
    
    ****************************************************************
    PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:
    When an entity or principal had no authority on an object and
    the authorities were individually removed, a defect in the MQ
    authority code was causing the authority list to be displayed as
    blank rather than NONE.
    

Problem conclusion

  • The code has been changed so NONE is always displayed when no
    authorities are present on the object.
