addGroupToDestinationRole command

Use the addGroupToDestinationRole command to add a group to the destination roles for a local or foreign bus.

To run the command, use the AdminTask object of the wsadmin scripting client.

(iSeries) (iSeries) The wsadmin scripting client is run from Qshell. (iSeries) See Configure Qshell to run WebSphere scripts .

Command-line help is provided for service integration bus commands:

• For a list of the available service integration bus security commands in Jython and a brief description of each command, enter at the wsadmin prompt:

  print AdminTask.help('SIBAdminBusSecurityCommands')

• For overview help on a given command, enter at the wsadmin prompt:

  print AdminTask.help('command_name')

After using the command, save the changes to the master configuration using the following command:

AdminConfig.save()

Use the addGroupToDestinationRole command to grant a group access to local bus destinations for the specified roles. The roles we can specify depend on the type of destination.

Target object

None.

Required parameters

-type destinationType

We can specify one of the following destination types:

• Queue
• Port

• TopicSpace

• ForeignDestination
• Alias

The allowed roles for a destination depend on the type of the destination as defined in Administer destination roles.

If we are specifying a destinationType that is either foreignDestination or alias, the foreign bus name specified must be the name of the foreign bus hosting the destination.

If we specify a destinationType of queue or topic, the foreign bus name is ignored. The authorization is granted against the destination in the local bus.

-bus busName

The name of the local bus. Use the listSIBuses command to list the names of existing buses.

-role roleType

We can specify one of the following role types, depending on the -type we have specified.

Sender

This role type applies to alias, foreignDestination, port, queue, and topicSpace destination types.

Receiver

This role type applies to alias, port, queue, and topicSpace destination types.

Browser

This role type applies to alias, port, and queue destination types.

-group groupName

The name of the group to add to the destination role type for the local bus. We can specify a group name, or one of the following specialized group names:

Server

This group contains application servers.

AllAuthenticated

This group contains authenticated users only.

Everyone

This group contains all users. Each user is anonymous.

Conditional parameters

None.

Optional parameters

-foreignBus foreignBusName

Name of the foreign bus. If we are adding a group to a destination on a foreign destination or an alias, specify the name of the foreign bus that hosts the foreign destination or the alias.

-uniqueName uniqueName

This parameter is valid only when used with WebSphere Application Server v7.0 or later application servers. Do not use it with earlier versions. Specify the name that uniquely defines the group in the user registry. If an LDAP user registry is in use, the unique name is the distinguished name (DN) for the group. We can specify values for both -uniqueName and -group, but ensure that they identify the same group. The command does not check that the values match.

Examples

The following example adds a group with the group name Group1, and the unique name SalesGroup to the sender role on a queue type destination called Queue1, on a local bus called Bus1.

AdminTask.addGroupToDestinationRole ('[-type queue -bus Bus1 
 -destination Queue1 -role Sender -group Group1 -uniqueName SalesGroup]')

The following example adds a group called Group2 to the receiver role on a queue type destination called Queue2, on a local bus called Bus1.

AdminTask.addGroupToDestinationRole ('[-type queue -bus Bus1 
 -destination Queue2 -role Receiver -group Group2]')
