Preparing for product-configuration migration

You must prepare your system for migrating to WebSphere Application Server Version 6.1.

Before you begin

See Overview of migration, coexistence, and interoperability and Premigration considerations.

For help in troubleshooting problems when migrating, see Troubleshooting migration.

Procedure

  1. Install WebSphere Application Server Version 6.1.
  2. Familiarize yourself with the tools and features of WebSphere Application Server Version 6.1.

    See Using the migration tools to migrate product configurations.

  3. Verify that you have the minimum prerequisites required for migration.

    For more information, see Checking for the product-configuration migration prerequisites.

  4. Evaluate the items deprecated in WebSphere Application Server Version 6.1.

    For more information, see the "Deprecated and removed features" article in the information center.

  5. Evaluate the changes to API specification levels to determine which applications you need to migrate.

    To plan your application migration requirements, use API and specification migration.

  6. Evaluate the changes to configuration settings.

    For more information, see Configuration mapping during product-configuration migration.
