mqsisetsecurity command
Use the mqsisetsecurity command on distributed operating systems to create the groups that WebSphere® Message Broker requires for secure access to its runtime libraries and data.
Supported platforms
- Windows
- Linux and UNIX systems
Purpose
The mqsisetsecurity command runs
automatically as part of the installation process of the Broker component on distributed systems.
However, the installation must be completed as root on AIX®, or as a user with root level
authority on Linux and on other UNIX systems. If you do not plan
to run the installation of the Broker component as root, or as a
user with root authorities, you must create the group mqbrkrs by
using the following command, and add your login ID to the group once
it has been created:
SUDO add grp mqbrkrs
For
more information about the extra tasks that you must complete to run
the Broker component installer
as a user without root authorities, see Security on Linux and UNIX systems.Otherwise, the installation wizard calls the mqsisetsecurity command, which creates a new security group called mqbrkrs. On Windows platforms, this command also adds your current (logged on) user ID to the group mqbrkrs, and to the group mqm, if that group exists. If WebSphere MQ is installed on a Windows workstation after WebSphere Message Broker, you can issue the mqsisetsecurity command to add your account to the group mqm.
Parameters
None
Authorization
For information about platform-specific
authorizations, see the following topics:
If you have enabled broker
administration security, you must also set up the authority detailed
in Tasks and authorizations for administration security.
In addition, this command is supported on Linux and UNIX systems where it only creates
the group mqbrkrs.
