  • Verify that WebSphere® MQ, the data grid, and the Identity component are running.
    • Check the operational member log files to verify that the Identity bundles started correctly.
    • Use the execute grid status all command to view the status of the grid components and verify that Identity component, the data grid, and WebSphere MQ are running. All three must be running for a user to log in.
      • If Identity is not running, restart the operational member with either the execute member start operational command or the execute member start_service operational command.
      • If WebSphere eXtreme Scale is not running, restart it with the execute grid start command.
      • If WebSphere MQ is not running, restart it using the instructions in the WebSphere MQ documentation.
