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??
