3. Prepare the components

  1. Log on to V1.1.1 administration server database: Log on to the computer where the V1.1.1 administration server database is installed as Administrator (Windows) or root (AIX).
  2. Copy the migration tool: Copy the downloaded and unzipped database migration tool files to the computer where the V1.1.1 administration server database is installed (outside the installation's directory structure). The exact location depends on the platform:
    AIX:
    Copy the files into the home directory of the DB2 instance owner (for example, /home/db2inst1).
    Windows:
    Copy the files into any temporary directory.
    Note:
    You do not need to copy the scripts you have already run, but the files are not large, and it may be quicker to copy them all rather than be selective.
  3. Optionally copy the software use data: If you want to preserve the software use data, copy the table USAGE_H to a location outside the Tivoli License Manager database schema (TLMA).
  4. Log on to V1.1.1 administration server computer: Log on to the computer where the V1.1.1 administration server is installed as Administrator (Windows) or root (AIX).
  5. Optionally retain the user authentication file: If you want to retain the existing user authentication, copy the file psw.xml from the directory <INSTALL_DIR>\admin\conf\users on the administration server to a location outside the product's installation directory.
  6. Optionally print the configuration files: After the migration, V2.1 has new configuration files that contain the default configuration values at installation. Configuration parameters are not migrated because not only have there been significant changes to the parameters themselves, but also many parameters that have remained the same with the same meaning now require different values to achieve the same result. However, it will be useful to have a copy of the configuration parameters that you were using. The files to print are in the <INSTALL_DIR>\admin\conf and <INSTALL_DIR>\runtime\conf directories of the V1.1.1 administration server, as follows:
