![]() APAR status Closed as program error. Error description When configuring for migration from 5.x to 6.1, when option Y is given for a zOS based migration or the -appInstallDirectory parameter when run from a distributed based migration, the directory name provided by the customer as the target for the migrated applications is not the target directory used by the migration process. Instead the applications end up in the defaultapplication installation directory.Local fix Problem summary **************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All users of WebSphere Application Server * * V6.1 for z/OS * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Migration with -keepAppDirectory set * * to false (default setting) will * * override the behavior of the * * -appInstallDirectory parameter * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** If customers migrate with -keepAppDirectory=false and specify a value for -appInstallDirectory (non-default value for the 'Y' option on the WebSphere Application Server V6.1 for z/OS configuration panels), the value will be ignored in favor of the default application install directory under profiles/<profile>/config/cells/<cell>/applications.Problem conclusion With this fix applied, the WebSphere migration will honor the customer specified value for the application install directory when the -keepAppDirectory is set to false (default). APAR PK43116 is currently targeted for inclusion in Service Level (Fix Pack) 6.1.0.9 of WebSphere Application Server V6.1 for z/OS.Temporary fix Comments
