RESOLVING THE PROBLEM
The simplest steps to resolve the 2035 MQRC_NOT_AUTHORIZED errors in a development environment, where full transport security is not required, are as follows:

7_23 | If this user is an MQ administrative user, then relax the Channel Authentication Record (CHLAUTH) security in MQ V7.1 or higher, so that administrative connections are not blocked on the SVRCONN channel you wish to use. An example MQSC command to do this for a SVRCONN channel called 'WAS.CLIENTS' is provided as follow... | TRAIN_Q007 | 23 | 10,804 | 11,289 | |
7_24 | An example MQSC command to configure a SVRCONN channel to use 'myuser' as the MCA user ID is provided as follows:

7_25 | The application server, who initiates the SSL/TLS handshake, must always be configured to trust the certificate provided by the MQ queue manager .

7_27 | The details of how to configure the username and password passed to MQ by the application server are described above in the "Diagnosing the problem" section.
All Server Connection channels that do not have SSL/TLS security applied should be disabled. | TRAIN_Q007 | 27 | 12,910 | 13,163 | |
7_28 | Example MQSC commands to disable the SYSTEM.DEF.SVRCONN channel are provided as follows (these assume no user exists on the MQ server called 'NOAUTH'):

CAUSE
The 7.0.0.x, v7.5.x and v8.0 to 8.0.2 versions of these applications were not designed to take advantage of 64 bit computing and only use 32-bit technology. | TRAIN_Q008 | 3 | 1,084 | 1,249 | |

ANSWER
The following IBM Rational Software version 7.x products are only supported on specified 64 bit operating systems running in 32 bit mode:
* Rational Application Developer for WebSphere Software
* Rational Software Architect
* Rational Software Modeler
* Rational Systems Developer
Similarly, Rational... | TRAIN_Q008 | 4 | 1,249 | 1,737 | |
8_5 | Rational Application Developer v8.0.3+ is available as a 64-bit application install on specified 64-bit operating systems, in addition to a 32-bit application install.
There is only one installation package. When installing RAD/RSA using IBM Installation Manager, on the Location page , if your operating system is 64-b... | TRAIN_Q008 | 5 | 1,737 | 2,260 | |
