Before you attempt this task, read
the following information:
Note: This task topic only applies to migrating a message set
from WebSphere MQ
Integrator Version 2.1 or WebSphere MQ Integrator Broker Version 2.1 to WebSphere
Message Broker Version 6.0.
It is possible to use message sets in WebSphere
Message Broker Version 6.0 that were created using WebSphere MQ
Integrator Version 2.1 or WebSphere MQ Integrator Broker Version 2.1. If the *.mrp file
is modified by hand between the export from WebSphere MQ
Integrator Version 2.1 or WebSphere MQ Integrator Broker Version 2.1, and then imported into WebSphere
Message Broker Version 6.0,
the results are not guaranteed and errors could occur.
To migrate a
message set:
- Export the message set or sets from WebSphere MQ Integrator Broker Version 2.1.
For more detailed information on this task refer to the WebSphere MQ Integrator Broker Version 2.1 documentation
library.
- Transfer the exported *.mrp file
or files to the system on which you are running the WebSphere
Message Broker Version 6.0 workbench. Check that the directory in which you
store these files contains only the files that you want to import.
- Close the workbench. This must
not be running when you invoke the mqsimigratemsgsets command.
- From a command line, invoke the mqsimigratemsgsets command,
specifying the parameters that you require.
- Check the report file mqsimigratemsgsets.report.txt that
is written to the directory from which you invoked the command. The
command provides the following information:
- The parameters specified when the mqsimigratemsgsets command was invoked
- The name of each message set file (*.mrp file)
that has been migrated
- Any warnings that have been generated
- Details of the objects created
- The time taken to process the message set
- The number of warnings produced for the message set
- The number of objects created for the message set
- The number of exported files that were processed
- Start the workbench and switch
to the Broker Application Development
perspective.
- You can now examine and manipulate the newly created message set
project or projects. The created projects are closed in the Broker Application Development
perspective and
must be opened (right-click the project then click Open Project).
