Migrating WebSphere Business Integration applications
You need to migrate the WebSphere Business Integration applications so that they become compatible with Version 7.5.0.3 of your adapter.
Migrating WebSphere Business Integration applications for use with Version 7.5.0.3 of your WebSphere adapter is a multistep process. First, the artifacts from WebSphere InterChange Server are migrated and converted. A project is then created for the artifacts in IBM Integration Designer. In the remaining steps, the adapter-specific artifacts are migrated and converted into the JCA-compliant format supported by Version 7.5.0.3 of the adapter.
- Migrating applications from WebSphere InterChange Server
To use Version 7.5.0.3 of WebSphere Adapter for SAP Software with applications from WebSphere InterChange Server, you need to migrate the application artifacts and convert them so that they can be deployed and run on IBM BPM or WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus. Understanding this task at a high level helps you perform the steps that are needed to accomplish the task. - Migration considerations for WebSphere Business Integration adapters
By migrating to WebSphere Adapter for SAP Software Version 7.5.0.3, you have an adapter that is compliant with the Java Platform, Enterprise Edition (JEE) Connector Architecture (JCA) and designed specifically for service-oriented architecture. - Migrating application artifacts from WebSphere InterChange Server
To migrate the application artifacts into IBM Integration Designer, run the WebSphere InterChange Server migration wizard. The wizard imports and converts most of the artifacts into a format that is compatible with IBM BPM or WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus. - Migrating adapter-specific artifacts
After a project is created for the artifacts in IBM Integration Designer, you can migrate the project using the adapter migration wizard. The adapter migration wizard updates adapter-specific artifacts such as the schemas and service definition files (.import, .export, and .wsdl) for use with version 7.5.0.3 of the adapter. When you finish running the adapter migration wizard, the migration is complete and you can work in the project or deploy the module. - Changes to the import, export, and WSDL files after migration
When the WebSphere InterChange Server migration wizard moves the application artifacts into IBM Integration Designer, changes made are reflected in the service definition files: the import, export, and WSDL files.
Example
The following diagram shows the wizards that you use to migrate WebSphere Business Integration solutions from WebSphere InterChange Server, so that these applications can be used with Version 7.5.0.3 of your adapter.
