Authorizing putting messages on remote cluster queues

On your platform, authorize access to connect to the queue manager and to put to the queue on that queue manager.

About this task

The default behavior is to perform access control against the SYSTEM.CLUSTER.TRANSMIT.QUEUE. Note that this behavior applies, even if you are using multiple transmission queues.

The specific behavior described in this topic applies only when you have configured the ClusterQueueAccessControl attribute in the qm.ini file to be RQMName, as described in the Security stanza topic, and restarted the queue manager.

Procedure

For UNIX, Linux® and Windows systems, issue the following commands:

setmqaut -m QMgrName -t qmgr -g GroupName +connect
setmqaut -m QMgrName -t queue -n QueueName -g GroupName -all +put

The user can put messages only to the specified cluster queue, and no other cluster queues.

The variable names have the following meanings:

QMgrName: The name of the queue manager.
GroupName: The name of the group to be granted access.
QueueName: Name of the queue or generic profile for which to change authorizations.

What to do next

If you specify a reply-to queue when you put a message on a cluster queue, the consuming application must have authority to send the reply. Set this authority by following the instructions in Granting authority to put messages to a remote cluster queue.
