Display access settings on UNIX, Linux, and Windows

Use the dspmqaut control command, the DISPLAY AUTHREC MQSC command, or the MQCMD_INQUIRE_ENTITY_AUTH PCF command to view the authorizations that a specific principal or group has for a particular object. Note that on IBM MQ Appliance we can use only the DISPLAY AUTHREC command.

The queue manager must be running to use this command. When we change access for a principal, the changes are reflected immediately by the OAM. Authorization can be displayed for only one group or principal at a time.

For a full definition of the dmpmqaut control command and its syntax, see dmpmqaut.

For a full definition of the DISPLAY AUTHREC MQSC command and its syntax, see DISPLAY AUTHREC.

For a full definition of the MQCMD_INQUIRE_AUTH_RECS PCF command and its syntax, see Inquire Authority Records.

The following example shows the use of the dspmqaut control command to display the authorizations that the group GpAdmin has to a process definition named Annuities that is on queue manager QueueMan1.

dspmqaut -m QueueMan1 -t process -n Annuities -g GpAdmin
