Connection security profiles for batch connections

Profiles for checking batch-type connections are composed of the queue manager or queue-sharing group name followed by the word BATCH. Give the user ID associated with the connecting address space READ access to the connection profile.

Profiles for checking batch and batch-type connections take the form:

hlq.BATCH

where hlq can be either the qmgr-name (queue manager name) or qsg-name (queue-sharing group name). If you are using both queue manager and queue-sharing group level security, IBM® MQ checks for a profile prefixed by the queue manager name. If it does not find one, it looks for a profile prefixed by the queue-sharing group name. If it fails to find either profile, the connection request fails.

For batch or batch-type connection requests, you must permit the user ID associated with the connecting address space to access the connection profile. For example, the following RACF® command allows users in the CONNTQM1 group to connect to the queue manager TQM1; these user IDs will be permitted to use any batch or batch-type connection.

RDEFINE MQCONN TQM1.BATCH UACC(NONE)
PERMIT TQM1.BATCH CLASS(MQCONN) ID(CONNTQM1) ACCESS(READ)
