Hi,

We have a requirement to connect to several different parts of the business using SSL.

These different business groups use different internal certificate authorities.

Does anyone know if a single MQ queue manager can use several different certificates. Everything I've seen suggests you are locked into using one certificate for all channels on the same queue manager.

Many thanks in advance.

regards

It's possible using the trust mechanism. Add the CA certificate to the queue manager's key repository, then use a certificate on the client that has been signed by the CA.

I have never used that feature, but maybe you can match the distinguished names on SSL when setting up the channels.

A queue manager can only have one certificate at a time.

However, a qmgr can talk to different qmgrs with SSL Certificates from different CA's, if that's what you are looking for.
