Manage conversion results after you run a WebSphere® ESB conversion session to convert your WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus resources. View and complete any remaining manual conversion tasks.

About this task

When you click Start conversion, the WebSphere ESB conversion tool opens a Review results tab. Through this tab, you have access to the complete list of resources that are converted by the WebSphere ESB conversion tool.
