IBM Tivoli Composite Application Manager for Applications, Version 7.2.1.1

Authorizing user IDs for the agent

The user ID that is used to run the agent must belong to the mqm group.

About this task

Do the following steps to authorize the user ID that is used to run the agent:

Procedure

  1. Log on to the UNIX or Linux system using the root ID.
  2. Add to the mqm group the user ID to be used for running the agent. The exact procedure depends on the version of the UNIX or Linux operating system.
    Remember: The user ID that runs the agent must be part of the mqm group unless WebSphere® MQ is at release level 7.0.1 or later and the user ID has been authorized in object authority manager (OAM) specially for all of its functionality. For information about how to optionally use OAM to authorize the user ID, See Appendix "Granting WebSphere MQ OAM authorities to a user ID" in IBM Tivoli Composite Application Manager Agent for WebSphere MQ User's Guide.
