About this Manual
Purpose This manual is a guide to SPAZIO Managed File Transfer/Secure (SPAZIO MFT/S) system administration for distributed platforms. It primarily provides the reader with a description of the SPAZIO Administrator graphical interface for use in Windows environments, and its menu-driven counterpart, SPAZIO Administrator Terminal, for use in non-Windows environments. The manual provides a step-by-step description of system administration tasks, for example:
Creating Queues, DQLs and User Classes
Viewing information on existing SPAZIO objects
User intervention such as activating/deactivating Queue Managers, Communication Lines and the Transport Monitor, as well as setting trace levels for these objects
Listing, setting and modifying security settings.
Reader This manual is provided for the SPAZIO system administrator. It is assumed that the reader has reasonable knowledge of SPAZIO and of the relevant Windows or UNIX operating systems. Programming knowledge is not required, but any familiarity with SPAZIO objects from the point of view of using, installing or configuring SPAZIO would be an advantage.
Area Covered The manual is organized as follows:
Chapter 1: SPAZIO Administrator: Getting Started describes the graphical interface for Windows-based SPAZIO administration.
Chapter 2: Using SPAZIO Administrator describes the range of operations that can be performed using SPAZIO Administrator.
Chapter 3: Security Management describes how security is implemented through SPAZIO Administrator.
Chapter 4: Transport Manager describes how to view session details of File/Message transport session.
Chapter 5: Log Viewer describes how to to view details of any active or inactive SPAZIO session.

About this Manual
Conventions Sometimes "Distributed Platforms" is abbreviated DP. The following are common styles that may appear in the manuals. Typographical styles change the appearance of certain areas of text. The instances where different styles are used and what these styles mean is explained below:
Italics Cross-references to other manuals appear in italic font. For example: SPAZIO MFT/S: Developer’s Guide.
Courier font This style illustrates system code or text. It may be input that needs to be entered by the programmer exactly as illustrated or output from the system. For example: correlation id Text in Courier font surrounded by a box with shading represents a listing. For example:
* PRINTOUT QUEUED *
Text in Courier font surrounded by a box, without shading represents a screen. For example:

Notes on Using SPAZIO Administrator A note for users who are new to Windows As described in Chapter 1: SPAZIO Administrator – Getting Started, many commands can be activated through a variety of mechanisms, including drop-down menus, pop-up or right-click menus, buttons and icons. Throughout this chapter, in most cases only the simplest methods of performing an operation are documented (e.g. clicking a particular button on the toolbar). See Chapter 1: SPAZIO Administrator – Getting Started for an overview of available menus and buttons.
2.3
System administration operations Sections 2.3.1 to 2.3.9 describe the range of operations that SPAZIO Administrator allows you to perform on the various SPAZIO objects (Queue Managers, Queues, DQLs, User Classes, Communication Lines, the Transport Monitor, Transport Classes, Transport Agents, and Tasks) on both Local and Remote Nodes. NOTE: SPAZIO Administrator does not permit the same range of operations for Remote Node objects as it does for Local Node objects. The differences in functionality are clearly indicated throughout the rest of this chapter.
2.3.1
Queue Managers The sections below describe the operations that you can perform on local Queue Managers using SPAZIO Administrator. NOTE: Queue Managers are created (or, more precisely, defined) through the SPAZIO configuration process. See SPAZIO MFT/S for Distributed Platforms: Installation and Configuration Guide for further details.

DQLs The sections below describe the operations that you can perform on DQLs (Destination Queue Lists) belonging to a Queue Manager on a Local or Remote Node using SPAZIO Administrator. A DQL is a SPAZIO object that groups together a set of queues to which you want to send files or messages. In SPAZIO you can add an item to a DQL by naming a destination queue and its Queue Manager. NOTE: all queues of a DQL must also belong to the same storage class. If a DQL item is a Queue Manager queue type (M queue type), all the other DQL queues must belong to the default storage class that is the first defined in SPQM.INI.

2.3.3.4 Create a DQL The easiest way to explain DQL creation is through a simple example. The following sections describe the creation of a DQL called dql2.
Requirements for the example DQL The following are the requirements for the example DQL dql2:
It must include two queues under Queue Manager BORODIN called FRMQMGR1 and FRMMVSND
It must include one queue under Queue Manager MVSNODE called FRMQMGR1
Read, Write and Set passwords must be specified for the DQL.
NOTE: in this example, two queues share the same name (FRMQMGR1). This is possible since both queues belong to different Queue Managers.
Structure of the example DQL The following diagram represents the DQL to be created:
DQL: SALESDQL
Queue Manager: JFK
Local Queue: FROMLIN
Queue Manager: HEATHROW
Local Queue: FROMHRW
Local Queue: FROMLIN

Add items to the DQL The rest of this section describes how to add items to the DQL. To follow the example described previously, the steps involved are:
Add a Queue Manager BORODIN as a child of the DQL dql2.
Add a Local Queue FRMQMGR1 as child of Queue Manager BORODIN.
Add a Local Queue FRMMVSND as a sibling of Local Queue FRMQMGR1. (Note: FRMMVSND could equally be inserted as another child of BORODIN.)
Add a second Queue Manager MVSNODE as a child of the DQL dql2. (Note: MVSNODE could equally be inserted as a sibling of BORODIN.)
Add a Local Queue also called FRMQMGR1 as child of Queue Manager FRMMVSND.
The following steps describe these procedures: 1

3.1
Security Management
Introduction SPAZIO Administrator provides comprehensive security functionality through highly configurable access rights to a range of SPAZIO objects at various levels:
3.2
Login - access to the SPAZIO Administrator program itself is limited to those users with appropriate access rights.
Nodes - at the top level, access rights for SPAZIO users can be configured for each node in the network.
Queue Managers - access rights for SPAZIO users can be defined for individual Queue Managers. At this level, you can also specify default Queue and DQL permissions, which will be inherited by all Queues and DQLs created under a specific Queue Manager.
Queues and DQLs - access rights for existing Queues and DQLs can be modified.
Logging in to SPAZIO Administrator Basic authentication is required in order to access SPAZIO Administrator, whether you wish to perform security management or any other operations (for example, those described in Chapter 2 of this manual).
3.2.1
Access control for SPAZIO Administrator When you start SPAZIO Administrator, you are requested for a User ID and Password. For information about creating, deleting, and managing user accounts, see the SPAZIO MFT/S for Distributed Platforms: Installation and Configuration manual. In order to access SPAZIO Administrator you must be part of the SPAZIO Administrators group.
3.2.2
Login procedure 1

Click on OK.
NOTE: if you have checked the Always show login dialog box for the connections option (see section 2.4: Setting SPAZIO Administrator Options), your SPAZIO Administrator session will always begin with the Access Denied dialog box.
3.3
Node-level security SPAZIO Administrator allows you to set and modify access rights for the Node object. Section 3.3.1: Node permissions describes the various types of access that can be specified for a Node. Sections 3.3.2 to 3.3.5 explain how to associate specific permissions with user groups, how to modify these rights and how to add/remove users or groups from the access list for a specific Node.
3.3.1
Node permissions As you will see later, SPAZIO Administrator lets you manipulate security permissions at the level of individual access rights (through the Special Access option), or by specifying pre-defined sets of rights (No Access, Operator and Full Control options).

Full Control - all access rights to the Node are granted for a specific user or group.
Operator - all access rights except Get Node Permissions, Set Node Permissions and Take Node Ownership are granted for a specific user or group.
Special Access - allows you to grant one or more of the access rights specified in section 3.3.1.1, or to specify Full Control, for a specific user or group.
