Configuring security authorization for Liberty profile servers on IBM i

Using the iAdmin GRANTAUTH command, you can authorize the QEJBSVR user profile to access the required resources for running the Liberty profile server.

Before you begin

Servers run under the QEJBSVR user profile if one of the following is true:
  • The Liberty profile environment was installed as a feature of a product offering using the IBM® Installation Manager.
  • the Job Manager was used to install the Liberty profile environment and the Run optional installation scripts on IBM i targets option is selected.
  • The iAdmin POSTINSTALL command was called after Installing the Liberty profile by extracting an archive file.

Also, QEJBSVR is granted authorization to files in the $WLP_USER_DIR and $WLP_OUTPUT_DIR locations in all of these installation scenarios. Additionally, when servers are created, QEJBSVR is granted authorization to server definition files and the $WLP_OUTPUT_DIR location.

About this task

This task provides example commands that show you how to authorize the QEJBSVR user profile to access the required resources for running the server after doing the following tasks:
  • Creating files manually or modifying the authorities on shared resources and server definitions files.
  • Configuring a server to access resources the QEJBSVR user profile is not yet authorized to.
