Abstract
Migrating process instances is not a standard feature of either WebSphere MQ Workflow or WebSphere Process Server. However, the APIs of the products provide capabilities that can be used for process instance migration. As a result, customers who migrated process instances from WebSphere MQ Workflow to WebSphere Process Server have been writing their own specific tools for this task.
For this example, another approach was chosen: Based on the available APIs of both products, general tools for instance migration were developed. To show the functions of the tools, a sample process is provided.
This example is by no means a complete solution for migrating process instances of all possible process models from WebSphere MQ Workflow to WebSphere Process Server. Instead, an instance migration is possible with more or less effort for some process models. For other process models, an instance migration may not even be feasible with reasonable effort.
If you want to migrate process instances from another system than WebSphere MQ Workflow to WebSphere Process Server, the approach shown here may also help you to create process instances on WebSphere Process Server.
