Use PCF to access OAM commands

On IBM i, UNIX, Linux, and Windows systems, we can use PCF commands to access OAM administration commands.

The PCF commands and their equivalent OAM commands are as follows:

PCF command OAM command
Inquire Authority Records dmpmqaut
Inquire Entity Authority dspmqaut
Set Authority Record setmqaut
Delete Authority Record setmqaut with -remove option

The setmqaut and dmpmqaut commands are restricted to members of the mqm group. The equivalent PCF commands can be executed by users in any group who have been granted dsp and chg authorities on the queue manager.

For more information about using these commands, see Introduction to Programmable Command Formats.
