Hi,

I tried the migration from MQSI 2.1 to WBIMB 6.0 , though I could migrate successfully, I still donot understand the following option I used with mqsicreateconfigmgr command:

-n db2DatabaseToMigrate

As per the documentation, this is the configmgr V2.1 database. My question is how is this database being used in V6.0? Will this database be used only when I try to deploy a flow to a V2.1 broker from the MB toolkit?
Because in my scenario, on the same system, I have configmgr and broker for V2.1 as well as V6.0. I tried mqsimigratemsgflows and mqsimigratemsgsets with one msgset and a flow and deployed it on a V6.0 broker. Everything runs good, but I could not understand what is the purpose of using the -n option when I create the configmanager in V6.0.

Can someone can clarify, on what situations, the V6.0 configmanager uses the V2.1 configmgr database?

thanks

The point of this option is to allow the v6 configuration manager to move all of the information that it needs from the 2.1 configuration manager's external database into the v6.0 configuration manager's internal private repository.

Usually, you should just install v6 and issue mqsimigratecomponents ConfigMgr in order to migrate the CM.

The -n flag is only useful if you deleted the v2.1 Config Manager before migration. Or if wish to move the Config Manager on to another machine (you could create a v6 Config Manager on the new machine and use the -n flag to point at the v2.1 data source).

Hope this helps
-Matt

Scar,

Not sure whats your scenario, have a look at the migration scenarios below:

http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/wmbhelp/v6r0m0/index.jsp?topic=/com.ibm.etools.mft.doc/ah23929_.htm

I did the migration in dev environment (windows), and following the instructions from the above link worked.

regards
