 Step 1 towards the goal: Scenario 1: Migrating a cell using the command line tools

About this task

In case of failure during the migration, save the current deployment manager and node configuration to a file that you can use later for recovery purposes.

Procedure

  1. Change to the <deployment manager profile root>/bin directory.
  2. Run the backupConfig command with the appropriate parameters and save the current profile configuration to a file. For example:
    /QIBM/UserData/WebSphere/AppServer/V61/ND/profiles/v61dmgr01/bin/backupConfig /mybackupdir/v61dmgr01backupBeforeV7migration.zip -username myuser -password mypass -nostop
  3. For each node in the configuration, change to the <node profile root >/bin directory.
  4. Run the backupConfig command with the appropriate parameters, and save the current profile configuration to a file. For example:
    /QIBM/UserData/WebSphere/AppServer/V61/ND/profiles/v61node01/bin/backupConfig /mybackupdir/v61node01rbackupBeforeV7migration.zip -username myuser -password mypass -nostop
