IT33722: USE DIFFERENT SECURITY IDENTITIES FOR KAFKA NODES WITHIN AN INTGERATION SERVER

APAR status

• Closed as requirement.

Error description

• By default the Kafka message flow nodes use the single security
  identity called kafka::KAFKA::<server name> for accessing the
  username and password used to connect to the Kafka servers.
  This APAR provides support for each Kafka message flow node to
  use different security identities based upon the value of the
  "Security Identity" field on each of the Kafka nodes which may
  be configured using the BAR editor or the mqsiapplybaroverride
  command.
