Disabling Websphere MQ feature by system name

You can disable the usage of File Manager Websphere MQ support by using the following FACILITY class profile if you have Security Server RACF® 1.9 (or later) or an equivalent security product.

FMNMQ.DISABLE.system_name

Where:

system_name: The value specified on the SYSNAME parameter in the IEASYMxx parmlib member. The value for any given system is displayed in the System ID field on the File Manager primary option menu or alternatively the ISPF primary option panel ISR@PRIM.

If the profile has been defined and a user has READ or higher access to the profile name then all Websphere MQ functionality within File Manager will be disabled for that user.

Example 1. Define a profile to disable all users on the system that is named FMPROD except myuser.

RDEF FACILITY FMNMQ.DISABLE.FMPROD AUDIT(NONE) +
			UACC(READ) OWNER(ownerid)
PE FMNMQ.DISABLE.FMPROD +
			CLASS(FACILITY) ID(myuser) ACC(NONE)

Example 2. Define a profile to enable all users on the system that is named FMPROD except myuser.

RDEF FACILITY FMNMQ.DISABLE.FMPROD AUDIT(NONE) +
			UACC(NONE) OWNER(ownerid)
PE FMNMQ.DISABLE.FMPROD +
			CLASS(FACILITY) ID(myuser) ACC(READ)
