Re: 5733W70 WebSphere Application Server V7 for i5/OS

You’ll need to recover any associated HTTP servers and probably hack it a little. Maybe re-register the profiles. Should be workable. I’ll think about that and get back to you.

Just thinking. Wonder if you can get V7 from the ESS website for 7.1? You can with higher versions. I just haven’t checked for V7. We might have a copy lying around.

Yes, the plan is to sunset the 520. If I copy those folders with V7 appear in the app server tab?

Oh, there's ways to get it over. ;)

Basically you back up the QWAS7* libraries and the /qibm/proddata/websphere and qibm/userdata/websphere directories for v7 then recover them over to the newer system.

The link to migrate from V7 is the following.

Personally, in a consolidation project I tend to push everything over to the POWER8 and then do the 8.5.5.9 upgrade there. Assuming the 520 is going away and you're consolidating everything to the POWER8 of course. That way you're not wasting time on the old iron and everything you do is for making that WAS workload work fine on the POWER8. The documentation is a little daunting but it's accurate. WAS isn't really tough...just tedious. If you need a hand let me know. :D

Thanks but in researching this I found this http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=nas8N1012847 which says it cannot be saved this way. That was my first thought.

For the migration, the W70 is on another system (older 9406-520). Is there a link with the steps to migrate to 8?

Hi Don, I suppose you can just do a SAVLICPGM/RSTLICPGM and then bring over any userdata profiles in the IFS. Why not just install WAS 8.5.5.9 on the 7.1 partition and migrate the WAS 7.0 workload to 8.5? You're going to have to do it either way.

We have a Power 8 running V7R1 and preparing for V7R3. One of our other systems which is running V7R1 is

5733W60 V6R0M0 WebSphere Application Server for OS/400 V6
5733W60 V6R0M0 WebSphere Application Server V6 Express
5733W70 V7R0M0 WebSphere Application Server V7 for i5/OS
5733W70 V7R0M0 WebSphere Application Server V7 Express

We need to install 5733W70 on the Power 8 before the upgrade so we can determine how to handle the WebFacing applications when we move to V7R3. Below is a link about the product

http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg27013275

We plan to upgrade the WAS at a later date. I sent email to the Passport group and have no response. Any suggestions on a method to get this done?
Thanks
