Error description
The creation of new subscriptions in runmqsc fails with a "AMQ8135E: Not authorized." error.
Local fix
1. It may be possible to define the subscription locally using runmqsc with the "-w WaitTime" flag and the "-m LocalQMgrName" parameter. for example: runmqsc -w 10 -m QMGR 2. To correct the SYSTEM.DEFAULT.SUB definition, use the following sequence of commands: runmqsc QMGR alter sub(SYSTEM.DEFAULT.SUB) end Then, restart the queue manager: endmqm QMGR strmqm QMGR
Problem summary
**************************************************************** USERS AFFECTED: Users who alter the SYSTEM.DEFAULT.SUB subscription via PCF, or via runmqsc using the -c or -w options, may be affected by this issue. Platforms affected: MultiPlatform **************************************************************** PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: If the SYSTEM.DEFAULT.SUB object is altered via PCF, or via runmqsc using the -c or -w options, then IBM MQ adds the MQSO_ALTERNATE_USER_AUTHORITY flag to the subscription definition. An attempt to create a new subscription based on this default object template via a direct runmqsc command did not set up an appropriate alternate user identity context when calling MQSUB since it is not necessary to do so when using the runmqsc command directly. This caused an MQRC_NOT_AUTHORIZED (2035) error to be generated and the command failed.
Problem conclusion
The IBM MQ code has been modified so that it removes any MQSO_ALTERNATE_USER_AUTHORITY flag on the template object when creating a subscription via a direct local runmqsc session. --------------------------------------------------------------- The fix is targeted for delivery in the following PTFs: Version Maintenance Level v9.1 LTS 9.1.0.20 v9.2 LTS 9.2.0.20 v9.3 LTS 9.3.0.10 v9.x CD 9.3.4 The latest available maintenance can be obtained from 'WebSphere MQ Recommended Fixes' http://www-1.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=171&uid=swg27006037 If the maintenance level is not yet available information on its planned availability can be found in 'WebSphere MQ Planned Maintenance Release Dates' http://www-1.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=171&uid=swg27006309 ---------------------------------------------------------------
