Overview of upgrading pre-2.4.x adapters

If the adapter framework version of the adapter you want to migrate is 2.3.x, you must first upgrade the adapter to the latest version released with framework 2.4.x. Then you can migrate the adapter to the 2.6 framework.

You may need to perform additional tasks when you install adapters released with Adapter Framework 2.4.x. These tasks depend on the location and kind of integration broker you use with Adapter Framework 2.6. The sections in this chapter describe those tasks.

In this chapter

The tasks described in this chapter are as follows:
