9.2.1 CD package availability #9

I'm looking to build a container image for a managed file transfer agent. This project advises to download 9.1.0.0 MQFA package from fixcentral but is there a v9.2 CD (RHEL) version of the agent available? if so, I assume the steps advised should still work for this release too.

Yes, you can use the Redistributable Agent Package of MQ 9.2.1 CD release to build the agent container. The package is available in Fix Central.

Thanks. FYI, now that the mq-container image (since 9.1.5) no longer supports OS users i.e. mqm, the cp commands in the /etc/mqm/mft/mqft_setupAgent.sh script are not permitted (the createAgent.mqsc and deleteAgent.mqsc files do not have global read, so uid 1001 can't copy them). This breaks your file transfer example as you can't create the SRC and DEST agents.

My mistake, it's not missing read rights on the *.mqsc files, but rather that the 1001 uid doesn't have write privs to the /etc/mqm/mft directory.

That is correct MQ container image 9.1.5 no longer support OS users. All processes run under dynamic user generated by a container platform.
