Defining permissions for an IBM MQ link publish/subscribe broker to work with IBM MQ
There are several ways to ensure that a service integration bus has authority with a message broker (in a IBM MQ network) to send subscription requests.
Before you begin
About this task
- Modifying the message broker configuration in the IBM MQ network if you are a IBM MQ administrator. Or
- Modifying the service integration bus configuration if you are a WebSphere Application Server administrator.
To ensure authority, complete one of the following steps:
Procedure
- Optional: Modify the message broker configuration by granting IBM MQ permissions for the user "SIBServer", which is the user name under which the publish/subscribe bridge control messages will be published.
- Optional: Modify the service integration bus by setting the OutboundUserID of the foreign bus that represents the IBM MQ network (which you defined as part of the IBM MQ link configuration). The OutboundUserID should be set to a user ID that already has the relevant IBM MQ permissions on the message broker installation image. By doing this you can be sure the publish/subscribe bridge control messages will arrive at the message broker in the IBM MQ network with the appropriate user ID set in them.
