Can anyone point me to the documentation/article on securing WMQ with Active Directory.
Installs and configuration are complete, I'm assuming we still can secure the environment such as access control with Active Directory
environment:
Windows 2008 server
WMQ v7.x
we are getting push back on not use OAM.
Thanks for the help

There is not, AFAIK, an out of the box way to configure ActiveDirectory to act as an Authorization Service so that you can use it INSTEAD of OAM - that is so that AD would "know" what a queue was, and know that user A could PUT or GET from that queue.
You can certainly configure AD to act as a user repository so that the OAM knows that user A can PUT or GET from a given queue.
Which are you trying to do? |

Thanks

That page describes how to retrieve information about what queue manager and queues an application should access. It does not describe how to configure AD to store information about what users can access what queues or queue managers, nor how to configure the OAM to know what groups a user belongs to.

Yes, I kinda did some home work via googling .. (may be not enough) , and tht's where need some additional help & thoughts |
If you want to know how to enable the OAM to talk to AD, so that it can verify that AD has authenticated a given user and find out what ids it belongs to, then start here
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/wmqv7/v7r0/index.jsp?topic=/com.ibm.mq.amqtac.doc/wq10820_.htm
If you want to configure MQ to ask AD what users are allowed to PUT or GET to a given queue, you're on your own. |
