On a windows server I have granted a group 'mca_test' some autorisations to qmgr:
setmqaut -t qmgr -g mca_test +inq +connect
If I try to remove the group typing the following an error appears:
setmqaut -t qmgr -g mca_test -inq -connect -remove
AMQ7097: You gave an authorization specification that is not valid.
From the System Administration manual on the usage of setmqaut:
Remove profile
+/-remove
Removes a profile. The authorizations associated
with the profile no longer apply to WebSphere MQ
objects with names that match the profile name
specified.
This option cannot be used with the option -t qmgr.
So its documented that it isnt possible to use the remove command to remove a group from qmgr
BUT...
How can I then remove the group with a command? |

Try: setmqaut -t qmgr -g mca_test -all

Don't specify -t as it says?

It removes 'inq' and 'connect' authorisations but it doesnt delete the group in QMGRs authority records. Isnt that possible? |

Looks to me that you were trying to remove an authorization that did not exist: -inq -connect... Set were +inq +connect...
Did you try using remove on the authorizations that were actually set?

Ok, I try this instead.
If I want to remove group 'mca_test' from queue 'TEST' I run this command:
setmqaut -t queue -n TEST -g mca_test -remove
The setmqaut command completed successfully.
The same way I want to remove group 'mca_test' from qmgr:
setmqaut -t qmgr -g mca_test -remove
AMQ7097: You gave an authorization specification that is not valid.
But it wont allow it on qmgr with 'remove' |

My recent experiments with removing entities from MQ OAM profiles on Windows with MQ 7.0.1.5 found that:
- Can't use +remove on qmgr object and its not possible to completely remove the entity's profile for qmgr object, so use -all. This leaves behind a qmgr profile with +none for that entity.
- Can't completely remove @CLASS profiles (that contain the +crt authority), so just use -crt. This leaves behind an @CLASS profile with +none for that entity.
I stand to be corrected if anyone can clarify...

Thats also my understanding of qmgr but im not happy with it leaving something behind 
Another thing... Can you explain what the @CLASS profile is and what it is used for? |

The @CLASS profile is used to store the +crt authority. This authority applies to an object type in general, not any particular named instance of it. eg. If you setmqaut +crt authority on any local queue name, it will allow that entity to create new local queues of any name.
For convenience, MS03 saveqmgr and amqoamd presents the +crt authority on the SYTEM.DEF.xxxxx object for each object type, and presents +crt on the qmgr object.

Interestingly, if you open the queue manager authority records using MQ Explorer on a windows machine, it provides a "Delete" button. By using that I was able to remove the record completely.
This is for MQ V7.0.0.2. So apparently there is a way. But maybe not through the command line (that will be a first). |
