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.

Launch the WebSphere InterChange Server migration wizard from within IBM Integration Designer to migrate the application artifacts from WebSphere InterChange Server format into artifacts that are compatible with IBM BPM or WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus.

For information about how to prepare to migrate artifacts from WebSphere InterChange Server and for detailed instructions on performing the migration and verifying that the migration was successful, see http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/dmndhelp/v7r5m1/index.jsp?topic=/com.ibm.wbpm.wid.imuc.doc/topics/twics.html.

Running WebSphere InterChange Server migration wizard might not fully convert adapter-specific artifacts (such as service descriptors, service definitions, and business objects) into IBM BPM or WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus compatible artifacts. To complete the migration of adapter-specific artifacts, run the adapter migration wizard after you have successfully run the WebSphere InterChange Server migration wizard.

While you run the WebSphere InterChange Server migration wizard, ensure that you set each connector in the repository to the same adapter version.


Results

The project and application artifacts are migrated and converted into IBM BPM compatible artifacts.


What to do next

Run the adapter migration wizard to migrate the adapter-specific artifacts.
