About this task
Use
this step if you are running a mixed cell environment only. STEPLIB
statements apply to WebSphere Application Server Version 6.1 and earlier.
If you are running with multiple nodes on the same LPAR, or if you
are running with a node on the same LPAR as the migrated DMGR (which
will create a mixed cell environment), you will need to add STEPLIB
statements that include the previous version's load modules to the
migrated Daemon's startup proc. This is due to the fact that the
Daemon must run at the highest WAS level on that LPAR. This is necessary
if for any reason you need to stop and restart the down level node
agent or application server. For example, after migration of the
DMGR, the BBO7DMN procedure was modified to include:
//*
//STEPLIB DD DISP=SHR,DSN=xxxxxxxx.SBBOLD2
// DD DISP=SHR,DSN=xxxxxxxx.SBBOLOAD
// DD DISP=SHR,DSN=xxxxxxxx.SBBOLPA
Where xxxxxxxx
= pointers to the previous WebSphere Application Server level. This
enables the Daemon to manage the migrated DMGR and previous level
node agents.
