Setting SecurityExit property on Websphere MQ connection - ibm-mq

In order to authenticate using security keys from a Java\Scala client, I understand that the following property must be set on the MQ connection:
Key:securityExit
Value: bctoolsj.wsmqtools.exits.BCPKIJCExit
I am using IBM Websphere MQ Explorer (version 7.5.0.2).
Where in this tool can one set the property?
Thanks

Value: bctoolsj.wsmqtools.exits.BCPKIJCExit
I presume your MQAdmin has setup the server-side security exit that matches this client-side security exit?
I am using IBM Websphere MQ Explorer (version 7.5.0.2). Where in this tool can one set the property?
Did you follow the instructions in the MQ Knowledge Center?
i.e. Right click on the queue manager, select Connection Details then Properties. Click on security exit and input the information.

In one of the windows system the administrator has installed the IBM MQ version 8. But after installation we are not ale to see the IBM MQ (installation 1) listed in the services. and also not able to see the file amqsvc.exe file.
If we launch Prepare Websphere MQ wizard it also just exits without any actions.
But on the control panel -programs and features able to see the IBM MQ installation1 is present . how to find out if the installation was done correctly?
Was this a MQ client installation instead of MQ server installation? how to find out what is the issue here as the MQ service is not present or its related files?

Configure Rest on IBM MQ Local Installation

I have installed a IBM MQ Developer version on a server, and I need to configure Rest requests, to be more specific it must be able to put message in the queue using a Rest request.
Unfortunately I didn't find any good source of information about this...
You need to run the MQ web server. Use the command strmqweb.

CCDT File not created when using IBM MQExplorer

I am trying to create the Client Channel Definition Table using IBM MQ Explorer 7.5.0.2. I have found several articles here which go through the steps of creating the options using the graphical UI in MQ Explorer but when I click 'Finish' nothing is created in the qmgrs folder. i.e. I run MQ Explorer as an Administrator and I have created a Channel definition and then a new Client Connection which I can see in the list of Client Connections but when I click on OK in the dialogue with the options, nothing is created in the Qmgrs folder.
Am I missing a step somewhere?
I found the files. The problem is that all the documentation I read says that the qmgrs directory is created in the application directory for MQ (where it was installed). This is not correct. It is created in the MQ data folder which can be different. Whoever first installed our MQ environment set this to a different location. Easy when you find the problem!
Thanks to everyone for their help.

Websphere QM configuration - error with musr_mqadmin account

I was trying to configure my WMQ.
queue manager was running until i changed the password of my musr_mqadmin account.
Now it the local queue manager that i created cannot be start any more
The pop up says "The MQ service for installation "installation1" must be running"
While i tried to reset the musr_mqadmin account, it says "mq configuration an error while validating the security credentials "
I am really stuck and helpless. Please kindly advise.
MQ Service runs under MUSR_MQADMIN account. You will need to provide the same password for MQ Service also. Go to Administrative Tools/Services console. Select IBM WebSphere MQ service and open the properties by double clicking on the service. On the Log On tab provide the new password and OK to close the dialog and start the service.
