Migrating a Version 2.1 User Name Server to Version 6.0 on distributed systems

Before you start:

Before you migrate the User Name Server, migrate the tooling and the Configuration Manager.

If you have a User Name Server in your Version 2.1 domain, you must migrate it to Version 6.0 when you migrate the Configuration Manager for that domain. This applies if the Configuration Manager and User Name Server are on the same computer, or different computers. This does not affect the migration of brokers, which can be migrated after the User Name Server and Configuration Manager have been migrated.

  1. Stop the Version 2.1 User Name Server.
  2. Install WebSphere Message Broker Version 6.0.
  3. Issue the mqsimigratecomponents command for the User Name Server.
  4. Start the Version 6.0 User Name Server.

When you have migrated all of your components, migrate the broker.
