WebSphere MQ authorities

Access to WebSphere MQ objects is controlled by authorities to:

  1. Issue the WebSphere MQ command

  2. Access the WebSphere MQ objects referenced by the command

All WebSphere MQ for iSeries CL commands are shipped with an owner of QMQM, and the administration profile (QMQMADM) has *USE rights with the *PUBLIC access set to *EXCLUDE.

Changes to the authority structure of some of the product's CL commands allows public use of these commands, provided that you have the required OAM authority to the WebSphere MQ objects to make these changes.
