Connection settings
Virtual queue manager name
When sending messages to WebSphere MQ, the WebSphere MQ gateway queue manager sees the bus as a remote queue manager. The virtual queue manager name is passed to WebSphere MQ as the name of the remote queue manager. The default value is the name of the Service Integration bus. If this bus name is not a valid name for a WebSphere MQ queue manager, or if another WebSphere MQ queue manager already has the same name, replace the default value with a unique, valid name for a WebSphere MQ queue manager.
- It must contain between 1 and 48 characters.
- It must conform to the WebSphere MQ queue naming rules (see the WebSphere MQ topic Rules for naming WebSphere MQ objects).

Trust user identifiers received in messages
The WebSphere MQ server's trust user identifier setting. This value determines whether user identifiers that are received in messages from WebSphere MQ are propagated into the message (that is, whether user identifiers that are received as part of message data are used in the service integration bus). If you select this checkbox, user identifiers that are received as part of WebSphere MQ messages are propagated into messages and used for security purposes within the bus. If you do not select this checkbox, the user identifier is overwritten with the WebSphere MQ server name.
