Create a Fabric as follows in JBoss A-MQ: fabric:create -- new -user admin -- new -user-password admin -- new -user-role Administrator --resolver manualip --manual-ip 127.0.0.1 --wait- for -provisioning Then I cannot login to Hawtio using admin user. But if I add either of the roles, admin or viewer , I can login. Also, if I create the following additional users: janedoe=secret,Deployer crider=secret,Monitor And do SSH login using bin/client , I see that janedoe and crider appear to have full admin access to the console commands, although they were not given the Administrator role. All of this behaviour is consistent with the old non-RBAC security. So, it looks like RBAC is not enabled in a fabric created in JBoss A-MQ 6.2 build 114.
