This topic shows you the steps to take for migrating WebSphere Extended Deployment Version 5.1 configuration settings to WebSphere Extended Deployment Version 6.0.1.
For migration to succeed, cell and node names must match for both WebSphere Application Server Version 5.1 / WebSphere Extended Deployment Version 5.1 and WebSphere Application Server Version 6.0.2 / WebSphere Extended Deployment Version 6.0.1. Since WebSphere Extended Deployment Version 6.0.1 does not support a mixed WebSphere Extended Deployment Version 5.1 and WebSphere Extended Deployment Version 6.0.1 environment, all WebSphere Extended Deployment nodes must be migrated together. Therefore, the runtime must be upgraded to WebSphere Application Server Version 6.0.2 and WebSphere Extended Deployment Version 6.0.1 on all nodes. The WebSphere Application Server migration process must be performed on the deployment manager and all WebSphere Extended Deployment application server nodes. Finally, the WebSphere Extended Deployment migration process is performed on the deployment manager.
