Hi !
If we are using a MQ (server) from few external MQ Client(s),
is there a way to force that this SVRCONN connection to be exclusive,
so two clients can NOT connect to the same queues simultaneously ?
Thanks a lot. |

In our setup we use a single SVRCONN channel for all clients to access a given queue manager. The channel is SSL enabled, and the effective userid is derived from the CN= attribute on the client's certificate (using a channel security exit). Individual queue authorizations are set such that client A cannot open client B's queues.
This may not directly answer your question but maybe it will spark an idea you can use. |

Thanks, Bruce
But we are still NOT using SSL ...
all machines are within own network,
so there is not much reason fot it (yet).
Thanks anyway.

Without SSL, there's nothing you can do to prevent machine A from connecting to Channel B, or Machine B from connecting to Channel A.
Well.
You could use a security exit.
Or WebSphere MQ Extended Security Edition.

No, I want to prevent a SECOND client to connect to the server
while the first did not end yet !!! |

You will need an exit of some kind - even with SSL you can't prevent a single app or machine from making more than one connection to the same channel.
Essentially every channel is actually only a channel definition. Each individual connection establishes a new instance of a particular channel, and there's no way you can limit this by who's at the other end.

And the limit HAS TO BE in the channel,
as the OPEN_EXCLUSIVE works only on a queue,
but second client can go to a second queue,
and we dont want that ! |

Then you need an exit.
You might be able to get away with an API exit that only looks at MQCONNs.
But you probably need a channel exit.

Hi,
MQ Authenticate User Security Exit (MQAUSX) is a solution that allows a company to fully authenticate a user who is accessing a WebSphere MQ resource. It verifies the User's UserID and Password against the server's native OS system or a remote LDAP server.
One of its many features is the ability to limit / control the number of channel connections.
For more information about MQAUSX go to:
