This document contains a link to the utility for and instructions about the migration process from IBM Lotus Learning Management System® (LMS) 1.0.5 or from IBM® Workplace™ Collaboration Services Learning 2.6 to IBM® Workplace™ Collaborative Learning 2.7 on a Microsoft Win32 platform.
Prerequisites
The Portal Update Installer can be used to install or uninstall interim fixes and fix packs on the IBM WebSphere® Portal Version 5 (including 5.0 and 5.1) or Version 6 products. The update installer for V5 can be used with either the WebSphere Portal for Multiplatforms versions 5.0 or 5.1, as well as WebSphere Portal Express for Multiplatforms Version 5.0. The update installer for V6 can be used with WebSphere Portal version 6 only.
This document is intended to describe the migration process to Workplace Collaborative Learning 2.7 from Learning Management System (LMS) 1.0.5 or from Workplace Learning 2.6 on Win32 using DB2. This document is a part of a WCL 2.7 Migration package, distributed as an iFix that upgrades a newly installed system so it is able to migrate from previous systems. The following table specifies what this package contains.
Name
Description
Configuration files
These files upgrade the existing WCL 2.7 configuration capabilities to support full migration from previous releases
Scripts
Database Scripts that work as part of the configuration capabilities to update an LMS 1.05 or WCL 2.6 database schema to the new WCL 2.7 database schema. For this release only DB2 scripts are contained in the Migration package.
It is not possible to update directly to release 2.7 from LMS 1.0.5 or Workplace Learning 2.6 because of the product architecture. This implies the need to install Workplace Learning 2.7 on a separate computer and then migrate your data from the LMS or Workplace Learning 2.6 system to the newly installed WCL system.
The transfer of your data to the WCL 2.7 installation involves a series of both manual and automated steps. This document aims to guide you through the process. The steps may vary slightly depending on the version of LMS, database backend, operating system, and so forth, that you are running.
