Checking the password for a resource that is used by an integration server

To check what security credentials are set on an integration server that is connected to a remote system or database, use the mqsireportdbparms command.

About this task

If you have an integration server that accesses external resources, you can check what security credentials are set if a security identity was created for the integration server. For more information, see Security identities for the integration server connecting to external systems.

You can check whether a password is valid for a set of security credentials. You might want to check a password if you recently updated the password while the integration server was running, to see whether the new password is in effect.

To review the security credentials that are set for a resource that is connected to an integration serverintegration server, complete the following steps.

Procedure

Run the mqsireportdbparms command with the work directory of the integration server that you want to check in the following format:

Where the names represent:

  • workDir is the work directory of the integration server
  • server as the details of your SFTP connection
  • SSH_identity as the SSH connection name
  • userdb as the data source name
  • user_id as the user ID that you want to check
  • password as the password that you want to check is valid for the integration server

Results

A result is returned that confirms whether the password that was provided is correct, or if it was incorrect. If there are no security credentials set for that integration node, then an information message is displayed.

Additionally, the command returns if the integration server was restarted after a password change, so that you know what password is valid for the integration server while it is running.
