Configuring the WebSphere Commerce application and the web server by using the Migration wizard

Configuring the application and the web server is the final stage of the migration process. You configure your application and web server by using the Migration wizard.

Before you begin

  1. Ensure that the database tier was migrated successfully.
  2. Ensure that the application tier was migrated successfully.
Notes:
  • WebSphere Commerce supports automatic migration of IBM HTTP Server. If you are migrating between versions of another web server, configure the new version of your web server manually.
  • The migration process creates a httpd.conf file with the necessary configuration settings to get IBM HTTP Server working with WebSphere Commerce version 7. Any customizations to httpd.conf you made in a previous release is not carried over during the migration. When the migration process is complete, carry over these customizations.

Procedure

  1. Open the Migration wizard.
  2. Respond to prompts to allow the Migration wizard to continue the configuration.
    This step includes creating the Work Managers that are used by the WebSphere Commerce Scheduler.

    If you are performing a test run, change your web server host name to ensure that your production web server host is not affected.

What to do next

Verify the migration.
