Profiles used to control access to IBM MQ resources

You must define RACF® profiles to control access to IBM® MQ resources, in addition to the switch profiles that might have been defined. This collection of topics contains information about the RACF profiles for the different types of IBM MQ resource.

If you do not have a resource profile defined for a particular security check, and a user issues a request that would involve making that check, IBM MQ denies access. You do not have to define profiles for security types relating to any security switches that you have deactivated.
