This articles explains how to allow jobs to run under a user's credentials when WebSphere security is enabled.
WebSphere Extended Deployment Version 6.0.2 introduced a feature that, by default, allows jobs to run under a user's credentials when WebSphere security is enabled. When the job is dispatched to the endpoint, the LREE will switch the server's credential, which is in the job step thread, to the user's credential.
