Looking for a way to override the ID that's being checked for permissions/access in MQ after an application ID/password has been authenticated against the OS or LDAP. This would allow for additional flexibility with the way access to MQ is organiz...

Add the SecurityPolicy=UserExternal setting/option (or something like it) to platforms other than UNIX (Windows, IBMi and NonStop, in particular)

This option would allow us to avoid creating a service ID for every channel and application that uses MQ in our enterprise. Currently we have several thousand IDs created on various platforms across the enterprise just to allow permissions to be g...

Quorum/Tiebreaker capability to protect M2000 appliance HA from split-brain during network failure events

An external agent should be provided that can be hosted separately from the appliance, ideally on a completely separate network, potentially in a separate datacentre. The appliances and the external agent form a ‘cluster' in which all are treated ...

Allow more than one entries in CONNAME for connect of remote qmgr in MQ Explorer

MQ MFT should send z/OS SMF records on its own

runmqdlq should not be setuid

For some reason the runmqdlq program is a setuid program. Now that it can be run with the -c flag this is problematic. O/S Permissions (execute permissions for mqm on the full directory structure) that would not be needed by a 'normal' MQ applicat...
