About this task
This article applies to installations of WebSphere Application Server
Advanced Server Single Edition (AEs) and Advanced Edition (AE) Version 4.0.x
that are running on the AIX 4.3.3 or Solaris 7 operating systems. Due to limitations
of the JDK used by WebSphere Application Server Version 6.0.x, you cannot

WASPreUpgrade command
that comes with the WebSphere Application Server Version 6.0.x product CD
with these operating systems. To create the backup directory used as input
to the
WASPostUpgrade command,
use the following steps.
