Manually synchronize all nodes

 Step 13 towards the goal: Scenario 2: Migrating cells across operating systems using the command-line tools

About this task

You must synchronize the old nodes to the new Version 7.0 deployment manager. Ensure that the Version 7.0 deployment manager on the new host is running. You must log into the machine that contains the old nodes and run the syncNode command.

Before you begin

Start the Version 7.0 deployment manager

Procedure

  1. Stop the node agent.
  2. Run the syncNode command from the bin directory. For example:
    [Windows]
    node_agent_install_root\bin\syncNode.bat myV7DmgrHost.mycompany.com 8879 -username myuser -password mypass
    [AIX] [HP-UX] [Linux] [Solaris]
    node_agent_install_root/bin/syncNode.sh myV7DmgrHost.mycompany.com 8879 -username myuser -password mypass
  3. Start the node agent if synchronization is successful.
  4. Obtain the deployment manager host and port number and update the node_agent_profile_root/properties/wsadmin.properties file. Change the com.ibm.ws.scripting.host value to the new host. Change the com.ibm.ws.scripting.port value to the new port.
