As a late IBM christmas present:
| Quote: |
It is possible to install just the version 5 tooling on a machine that
already has a previous version installed. You need to use the setup.exe
in the tooling subdirectory, not the one on root of the CD, using the
attached response file.
If you save the response file in the "C:\temp" directory, the command
would be as follows:
setup -options "C:\temp\toolkit.txt"
The same file will work with GA and CSD installs. (N.b. To get at the
tooling subdirectory in a CSD you will first need to manually extract
the files from Uxxxxxx.exe, using WinZip for example.)
And finally, there is a dependency error problem in CSD2 which only
appears when running the tooling install in this way. The response file
includes a work around that makes it possible to carry on past the
dependency error message, using the next button and selecting ok when
prompted. (This will be fixed in the next CSD.)

Testo,
I was aware of those posts and knew some people had done some experimenting and obviously succeeded.
This however comes from IBM, which takes the co-existence out of the 'experimental' config area.
(aka DO try this at home and not on your real boxes...  )

Installing the Toolkit in this way works ok.
I am only missing the mqsimigrate programs.

OK, so I am pushing the limit a little and have CC 2.1 installed and WBI V5 Toolking on one machine, which works great!
My brokers are on different machines (actually VMWare instances  )
but now needed to test some stuff on WMQI 2.1 CSD6 and my install was on CSD4 level...
Broker upgrade was on a seperate machine so no problem and went fine...
CC 2.1 CSD4 to CSD6 upgrade cancelled out on me as my machine was on level 5.1 reported according to the registry...
So did some digging and though I'd share my upgrade...
Go into regedit and follow the 'levels' below, change your directory names and not mine 
| Code: |
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
SOFWARE
IBM
WebSphereMQIntegrator
2
Filepath REG_SZ C:/WBIMBV5 new C:/WMQIV2
Workpath REG_SZ C:/WBIMBV5 new C:/WMQIV2
Components
CurrentVersion
MQSeriesIntegratorRelease REG_SZ 0.1 new 1.0
MQSeriesIntegratorVersion REG_SZ 5 new 2 |
After that the CSD6 install went very smooth...
Note: Don't forget to set the registry settings back after the install of CSD 6

I've installed the v5 toolkit as written above(2.1 installed already), but on first connection to the CFG MGR, I get a licensing issue saying certain features will be disabled(I've done the mqsisetcap on the cfg mgr).
The error does not appear on subsequent connections to the broker - making it difficult to nail down the issue.
I noticed that there is no config subdirectory or product.lic file therein however- is that why? |

Likely.
Did you install just a CSD, or did you do a base install first and then add the latest CSD?

On a related note, the recently announced Message Broker v6 will coexist with previous versions on the same machine.
This includes the ability to have multiple, named Configuration Managers on the same machine. |
