Security installation tasks
When WebSphere MQ is first installed and customized, you must perform these security-related
tasks:
- Set up WebSphere MQ data set and system security by:
- Authorizing the queue manager started-task procedure xxxxMSTR and the
distributed queuing started-task procedure xxxxCHIN to run under RACF(R).
- Authorizing access to queue manager data sets.
- Authorizing access to resources for those user IDs that will use the queue
manager and utility programs.
- Authorizing access for those queue managers that will use the coupling
facility list structures.
- Authorizing access for those queue managers that will use DB2(R).
- Set up RACF definitions for WebSphere MQ security.
- If you want to use the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL), prepare your system
to use certificates and keys (see Configuring your system to use the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL)).
