Look at the manuals "WMQ Migration Information V6.0" and "WMQ Quick Beginnings for Solaris V6.0" in the Library or Info Center.

A few thoughts:

At the very least, you should have a documented and tested fallback plan. You should have a set of benchmark applications that you can run to validate that the upgrade still allows your business applications to run.

Practice upgrading on a test qmgr.

The WMQ System Admin manual has an entire section devoted to Recovery and Restart that describes what MQ needs to stay alive and well.
