When you import a project interchange file that contains
modules from a previous version of Integration Designer or WebSphere
Integration Developer, a migration wizard is automatically launched
in IBM® Integration
Designer V8.5.6. If the
project interchange file contains any generated Java Platform, Enterprise
Edition staging projects (such as EJB, Web, or App projects), the
migration wizard contains a page to help you migrate the projects.
Before you begin
When you are preparing previous version Integration Designer
or WebSphere Integration Developer modules for migration to
IBM Integration
Designer V8.5.6, it is
recommended that you do not include any custom artifacts in the generated
Java EE staging projects. If you adhere to the recommendation, you
do not need to include any generated Java EE staging projects in your
project interchange file.
About this task
If your imported project interchange file contains any generated
Java EE staging projects, they are automatically deleted and regenerated
again during the migration process. (If your project interchange file
does not contain any generated Java EE staging projects, required
Java EE staging projects are automatically generated during migration.)
Procedure
- Import the project interchange file that contains your
modules and Java EE staging projects. The Workspace Migration wizard
opens to the Workspace Migration page.
- Click Next. In the Review
the Java EE Staging Projects page, review the list of Java
EE staging projects in the tree area.
- Complete one of the following steps:
- If your Java EE staging projects do not contain any custom
artifacts or if they contain custom artifacts that can be safely
deleted along with the Java EE projects because they exist elsewhere
(such as a repository), click Next to continue
the migration process.
- If your Java EE staging projects contain any custom artifacts
that do not exist elsewhere (such as a repository), click Cancel to
exit the wizard and save the custom artifacts to another location,
then switch to the Migration Results view and
click the Run Migration icon to continue the
migration process.
Results
Any required Java EE projects are automatically generated
again except for EJB staging projects, which are no longer required
by modules in Integration Designer.
