Always refer to the file install.html for
the latest information about installation tasks. On UNIX systems,
you must complete security tasks before you install WebSphere
Business Integration Event Broker;
these tasks are described in install.html.
On Windows systems, you can define user IDs up to 12 characters long. On UNIX systems and on z/OS you are restricted to eight characters. If you have a mixed environment, ensure that your user IDs are not more than eight characters long.
Perform this task by considering the following steps:
When complete, go to Creating user IDs after installation.
The installation program does not create groups or user
IDs. You can launch the Security Wizard from the installation program dialogs,
or you can select . If you prefer, you can
create groups and users manually; the steps required are shown in install.html.
If you intend
to install WebSphere
Business Integration Event Broker in a domain environment,
review these additional considerations:
Security control of WebSphere
Business Integration Event Broker components,
resources, and tasks depends on the definition of users and groups of users
(principals) to the security subsystem of the operating system. You must create
the groups and users required by WebSphere
Business Integration Event Broker before
you install the product. Refer to the install.html file for details of what to create, and
how to complete the task.
Users must also have the appropriate authority to WebSphere MQ resources (queues and queue managers) and to the databases being used by the broker. Users on UNIX need appropriate authority to the WebSphere MQ resources on UNIX and to those on any remote queue managers (for example, the Configuration Manager on Windows). The Security requirements for UNIX platforms table provides a summary of authorizations in the UNIX environment.
When you are planning the administration of your broker configuration, consider defining user IDs for the following roles:
If you are running a Configuration Manager with one user ID and a broker with a different user ID on another system, you might see an error message when you deploy message flows to the broker. To avoid this, complete the following steps:
