Migrating to a Version 7.0 standalone application server

Use the migration tools to migrate from a WebSphere® Application Server Version 5.1.x or Version 6.x standalone application server profile to a Version 7.0 standalone application server.

Before you begin

Read Overview of migration, coexistence, and interoperability and Premigration considerations.

For help, read Troubleshooting migration.

If your scenario includes migrating a WebSphere Application Server Version 5.1.x or Version 6.x configuration on one machine to Version 7.0 on another machine, use the alternate procedure described in Migrating to a Version 7.0 standalone application server on a remote machine.

Tip: Before migrating a WebSphere Application Server Version 5.1.x or Version 6.x standalone application server, use the backupConfig command or your own preferred backup utility to back up your existing configuration if you want to be able to restore it to its previous state after migration. Read the "backupConfig command" article in the information center for more information. Make sure that you note the exact name and location of this backed-up configuration.

Decide whether you want to migrate from WebSphere Application Server Version 5.1.x or Version 6.x to Version 7.0 using the Migration wizard or using the command-line migration tools.
