Migrating from previous version of IBM HTTP Server

This section provides information about upgrading from a previous version of IBM® HTTP Server.

About this task

IBM HTTP Server Version 8.5 can coexist with earlier versions if you install Version 8.5 into a different directory. You can also upgrade earlier versions of IBM HTTP Server to Version 8.5 by installing Version 8.5 into the directory where an the earlier version of IBM HTTP Server is located. Using the same installation path on the same system for the new IBM HTTP Server version preserves the validity of the WebSphere Application Server web server definition (with a minor exception for a Windows server where the service name needs to be modified in the server definition to the service name used for the new version).

This procedure covers migrating from the previous major release. If migrating from an IBM HTTP Server earlier than that, then first refer to the documentation for the interim IHS version(s) and review the migration info there since there might be additional steps you need to perform that are not documented here.
