Modifying a migration definition using the z/OS Migration Management Tool

Before you migrate a WebSphere® Application Server for z/OS® Version 5.1.x or Version 6.x node to Version 7.0, you must create Job Control Language (JCL) jobs (CNTL and DATA datasets) that you will run on z/OS during the actual migration. You can use the z/OS Migration Management Tool to create a migration definition and upload the appropriate migration jobs. This article leads you through the steps involved in modifying a migration definition that you created using the z/OS Migration Management Tool.

Before you begin

Refer to the definitions of the variables in the following articles: Use the completed worksheet as a reference when you modify your migration definition.

Procedure

  1. Start the z/OS Migration Management Tool.

    Read Starting the z/OS Migration Management Tool for more information.

  2. In the Migration Locations table, select the location of the migration definition that you want to modify.
  3. In the Migration Definitions table, select the migration definition that you want to modify.
  4. Click Regen.
  5. Modify the fields in the panels using the values that you entered for the variables on the configuration worksheet that you created.
    Tips:
    • Click Back and Next as necessary.
    • Hover your cursor over a field for help information.
    • Click Cancel at any time to leave the process without generating a modified migration definition.
    When you have successfully entered all of the necessary information on the panels for this type of migration definition, the z/OS Migration Management Tool displays the definition type, location, and name on the Migration Summary panel.
  6. Click Create to build the modified migration definition on your workstation and replace the old definition.
  7. Read the information on the Migration Creation Summary panel.
  8. Click Finish.
