Is it possible to have multible client connection to a mq manager with different certificate and different channels?
One QM, multible client each with their own channel and certificate.
Is that possible ?

Yes...

Again, yes...

Each client can specify it's own key store, or use a 'common' key store with a certificate specific to that client (not a practice I recommend), and each client can specify it's own Client Channel Definition Table (CCDT) file, or use a 'common' CCDT which contains an entry specific to that client. Research the Info Centre, appropriate to your version of WMQ, for information regarding the mqclient.ini file.

Thanks

And on the QM you can specify that one certificate only can be used for a specify channel ?

A queue manager has one, and one only, personal certificate so you cannot have a certificate per SVRCONN. Depending on your version of WMQ you can use combinations of CHLAUTH records to lock down a specific SVRCONN to a specific Client, or use exits if your WMQ version does not support CHLAUTH records and you need hard lock down on the channels.

You can also use the SVRCONN channel's SSLPEER attribute to very specifically decide which valid incoming SSL certificate that channel will accept.

Pretty much I now set that in CHLAUTH above V7.0 as I've found it gives me more flexibility on 'shared' SVRCONNs.
