Migrating Version 5 messages using the WebSphere message migration utility

This set of topics describes the migration of Version 5 messages to Version 6 messages, using the WebSphere® message migration utility.

About this task

The message migration utility takes the contents of existing WebSphere Application Server Version 5 embedded messaging queues and puts them on the new WebSphere Application Server Version 6 default messaging queues.

Note: the message migration utility does not migrate publish/subscribe messages or durable subscriptions.
You run the message migration utility only once for a particular queue unless one of the following is true:
  1. The first message migration attempt was unsuccessful.
  2. You wish to reverse the message migration (that is, move the messages back to WebSphere Application Server Version 5).
If you migrate a server and messages from Version 5 to Version 6 and then decide to reverse the migration, the reversal must be done in the following order:
  1. Run the message migration utility in the direction: Version 6 to Version 5.
  2. Reverse the server migration.

It is possible to migrate multiple queues during a single execution of the utility.

Migrating Version 5 embedded messages, using the message migration utility, is described in more detail in the following topics:
