I'm posting this here for discussion and will likely open a PMR with IBM to get their 
perspective.

In the UNIX realm for a while we have discussed the fact we are not comfortable 
triggering an application and having it run as mqm with full mqm privileges.  We would 
prefer and are considering having multiple trigger monitors each running under a 
unique application group id.  

Naturally out of the box the trigger monitors attributes are set to force the monitor 
to run as mqm as the example below shows:

        lx03-cluster:#> ls -al /opt/mqm/bin/run*
        -r-sr-s---    1 mqm      mqm         18328 Feb 11 16:09 /opt/mqm/bin/runmqtmc

#1 - Is anyone aware of a technical reason for this?

We are considering two approaches to this

a) Placing a copy of the executable in each application groups home directory.  The 
down side to this is we could have many versions that we as admins would have to keep 
track of whenever we apply maintenance to the software.

b) Modifying the attributes of the source 
        
        -r-xr-x---    1 mqm      mqapp         18328 Feb 11 16:09 /opt/mqm/bin/runmqtmc

        but again we would need to keep note of this whenever we apply maintenance to 
the software however this would be the lesser of the two evils.

c) are there other options??

Thanks for your input in advance!
