Authority configuration event generation

Use this page to view the situations that cause authority configuration events to be generated, and to understand the circumstances in which authority configuration events are not generated.

An authority event message is put to the configuration event queue, when the CONFIGEV queue manager attribute is set to ENABLED and any of the following commands, or their MQSC equivalent, are issued, even if there is no actual change to the authority record:


When authority configuration events are not generated

The authority configuration event messages are not generated in the following circumstances:

  • When a command fails
  • When a queue manager encounters an error trying to put a message on the event queue, in which case the command completes, but no event message is generated
  • When creating or deleting a queue manager
  • When an object is deleted regardless of the AUTHREC option on the delete command. The corresponding command event shows that operation, which does not apply to the authority record for individual users.
