Removed features of WAS traditional
If we are migrating the configuration from an earlier release of WebSphere Application Server traditional, review the various features that were removed from this and earlier releases.
WAS traditional uses the following naming scheme:
V.R.M.F
where
- V = version
- R = release
- M = modification
- F = fix pack
For example, 9.0.0.1 refers to version 9, release 0, modification 0, and fix-pack 1. It is also common to use "version" to prefix a particular release, modification, or fix pack-"version 9.0" when referring to a release, for example, or "version 9.0.0.1" when referring to a fix pack.
If a feature is listed in Deprecated features of WAS traditional as deprecated, IBM might remove this capability in a subsequent release of the product. Future investment will be focussed on the strategic function listed under Recommended Migration Actions in Deprecated features of WAS traditional. Typically, a feature is not deprecated unless an equivalent alternative is provided. A feature is not removed until at least two major releases or three full years, whichever time period is longer, from the release in which that feature is deprecated. Looking at a sequence of releases including 6.0, 6.1, and 7.0, for example, features deprecated in release 6.0 first become eligible for removal in 7.0. In rare cases, it might become necessary to remove features sooner; such cases are indicated clearly and explicitly in the descriptions of these features in this article.
The following tables describe what is removed-such as features, APIs, scripting interfaces, tools, wizards, publicly exposed configuration data, naming identifiers, and constants. Where possible, the recommended replacement is identified.
- Features removed in v9.0
- Features removed in v8.5
- Features removed in v8.0
- Features removed in v7.0
- Features removed in v6.1
- Features removed in v6.0
Features removed in v9.0
Feature Recommended Migration Action Centralized Installation Manager for v7.0 and earlier Manually install, update, or uninstall the product. For new installations, install the product by running the install command. For updating the product with fix packs or interim fixes, use the Update Installer for WebSphere Software. See documentation for that version of the product.
Centralized Installation Manager for WAS v8.0 and later continues to be available.
Communications Enabled Applications There is no alternative for CEA. If we are deploying the application on Liberty, consider using the Rtcomm feature which provides a set of real-time communications tools. See WebRTC Application Development with Rtcomm.

For applications that require event-based models, use Service Integration Bus (SIBus). Design the applications to use SIBus-provided APIs for sending and receiving events. For information about the com.ibm.websphere.sib APIs, see the IBM WAS API specification for v9.0. (ZOS) DMZ Secure Proxy Server for IBM WAS for z/OS (ZOS) If we use the proxy server as a front end to WAS, use IBM HTTP Server and the WebSphere Web Server Plug-ins, which are included with the product at no additional charge. For more capability, consider using IBM DataPower appliances. If we use the proxy server separately from WAS, basic HTTP proxy functionality is available with the HTTP servers bundled with z/OS:
- V2R2 and later: IBM HTTP Server (powered by Apache)
- V2R1 and earlier: IBM HTTP Server for z/OS V5R3 (DGW)
For more capability, consider using IBM DataPower appliances.
For more information about intermediary services, see Select a front end for our WAS topology.
Edge Components: Load Balancer for IPv4 Use the Edge Components: Load Balancer for IPv4 and IPv6. For information about how to migrate to Load Balancer for IPv4 and IPv6, see Migrate to Load Balancer IPv4 and IPv6. JavaServer Faces (JSF) 1.2 Sun Reference Implementation (RI) Use the JSF 2.2 MyFaces implementation. For information about how to migrate to this implementation, see JavaServer Faces migration and the Migrate JavaServer Faces 1.x applications to JavaServer Faces 2.0 topic on IBM developerWorks .
Migration tools:
- convertScriptCompatibility command
- WebSphereConnectJDBCDriverConversion command
- convertScriptCompatibility: No migration action is required. The configurations that this command converted are no longer supported.
- WebSphereConnectJDBCDriverConversion: No migration action is required. The WebSphere Connect JDBC driver was included through v6.1, and migration to v9.0 is supported only for v7.0 and later.
Pluggable Application Client Use the IBM Thin Client for Enterprise JavaBeans. See Running the IBM Thin Client for EJB. Remote Installation Tool for IBM i (iRemoteInstall) To install the product using a GUI, use the IBM Web Administration for IBM i GUI. See Manage an IBM WAS installation on IBM i with IBM Web Administration for i. Alternatively, we can use the Installation Manager imclcommand or response files to install the produce and service from local or remote repositories. See Install the application serving environment.
Open Service Component Architecture (SCA) model and samples Update the applications to use different programming models. The programming models that we use vary depending on how we previously incorporated SCA in the application.
If we used SCA to create modular applications, consider using OSGi instead. See Develop OSGi applications.
If we used SCA for binding, consolidate the ways in which the application is exposed to a few standards, such as Java API for RESTful Web Services (JAX-RS) or Java Message Service (JMS). For example, use JAX-RS for application bindings; for more information, see Implement JAX-RS web applications. To minimize the duplication of binding level implementation, structure the application to use shared code.
To continue to use SCA as part of our long-term strategy, consider hosting the applications on IBM Business Process Manager.
Web 2.0 and Mobile Toolkit
- Dojo Toolkit, including Dojo Diagrammer
Dojo desktop and mobile applications will continue to function but are no longer supported. We can continue to develop Dojo applications using the open source Dojo Toolkit.
- Analytics and Graphics server-side services
- Rearchitect the applications to use Java API for RESTful Web Services (JAX-RS).
When we migrate the graphics service, we can use the open source Apache Batik project to convert images.
- Optimizer, WebDAV extension, Map Conversion, and Dojo Diagrammer application services
There is no recommended migration action.
The Web Messaging service, Ajax Proxy, and RPC Adapter application service, which are installed with the product, were not removed but are deprecated. For information about recommended alternatives for these items, see Deprecated features of WAS traditional.
(Dist) Web server plug-in configuration scripts The following scripts were removed on distributed operating systems:
- ConfigureApachePlugin.bat and ConfigureApachePlugin.sh
- ConfigureDomino7Plugin.bat and ConfigureDomino7Plugin.sh
- ConfigureIHSPlugin.bat and ConfigureIHSPlugin.sh
- ConfigureIIS5Plugin.bat
- ConfigureIIS6Plugin.bat
- ConfigureIIS7Plugin.bat
- ConfigureSunOnePlugin.bat and ConfigureSunOnePlugin.sh
The ConfigureIHSPlugin.sh script for the z/OS operating system was not removed and can continue to be used.
(Dist) Configure the web server plug-in using the pct tool. To use the pct tool, run the wctcmd.bat or wctcmd.sh script with -tool pct parameter specified. See Configure a web server plug-in using the pct tool.
(ZOS) WAS for z/OS support for 31-bit addressing mode (ZOS) Before migrating to v9.0, convert the servers to 64-bit addressing mode. (HPUX) WebSphere Customization Toolbox GUI support on the HP-UX operating system GUI support still available for other distributed operating systems.
(HPUX) Instead of the Web Server Plug-ins Configuration Tool, use the wctcmd -tool pct command to configure the web server plug-in. See Configure a web server plug-in using the pct tool.
Instead of the Configuration Migration Tool, use a combination of the WASPreUpgrade, manageprofiles, and WASPostUpgrade command to migrate profiles. See Migrate, coexist, and interoperate.
Instead of the Profile Management Tool, use the manageprofiles command to create, delete, augment, back up, and restore profiles. See manageprofiles command.

Feature Recommended Migration Action Apache SOAP channel in web services gateway Gateway services should be deployed to the SOAP HTTP channel instead of the Apache SOAP channel.
