Migrating a Version 6.1 WS-Notification configuration from WebSphere Application Server Version 6.1 to Version 7.0 or later

You can migrate an existing Version 6.1 WS-Notification configuration to run in a WebSphere® Application Server Version 7.0 or later environment.

Before you begin

This topic assumes that you have the following configuration:

About this task

When you migrate your system from WebSphere Application Server Version 6.1 to Version 7.0 or later, any existing WS-Notification configuration (for example WS-Notification services, service points, administered subscribers), and the associated service integration bus resources (for example inbound services and endpoint listeners) are automatically migrated to valid configuration elements within the new installation. The services and service points are migrated to Version 6.1 WS-Notification services and service points, the endpoint URLs for the service points are unchanged, and the functions supported are exactly the same as in WebSphere Application Server Version 6.1. For example, reliable notification is not possible with Version 6.1 WS-Notification services and service points.

Any messages pending notification are delivered following the update and server startup sequence.

Procedure

  1. Migrate your product configuration from WebSphere Application Server Version 6.1 to Version 7.0 or later.
  2. Check that notifications are being published and consumed correctly in your migrated system.

    Initiate the program, process, or application that includes the WS-Notification client (or clients), and that causes notifications to be requested and transmitted.

Results

The WS-Notification services and resources are migrated to Version 6.1 WS-Notification services and resources that run under WebSphere Application Server Version 7.0 or later. Any messages pending notification are delivered.

What to do next

You are now ready (optionally) to prepare your migrated Version 6.1 WS-Notification configuration for reliable notification.
