Error description
NOT ALL PROFILES MIGRATE WHEN MIGRATING TO WAS V8.5.5 WASPREUPGRADE fails when no default is used. MIGR0104E : You must specify the currently installed Application Server Directory name
Local fix
workaround : STRQSH $ cd /qibm/userdata/websphere/appserver/V8/BASE/profiles $ ln -s /pce/d2admin d2admin $ cd /QIBM/ProdData/WebSphere/AppServer/V85/Base/bin $ WASPreUpgrade /pcenew/backuppreupgrade /qibm/userdata/websphere/appserver/v8/BASE/profiles/d2admin so because customer moved the profiles from default location to /pce and extra creation of the symbolic link is a workaround
Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All users of IBM WebSphere Application * * Server Migration Tools on ISeries * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: WASPreUpgrade only allows the second * * command line parameter to be a valid * * profile directory located under * * /QIBM/UserData/... * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** Some ISeries customers install WebSphere in a non-standard locations. In addition, profiles may also be created in a non-standard locations. Currently WASPreUpgrade cannot handle these non-standard install and profile locations.
Problem conclusion
Instead of WASPreUpgrade mapping a /QIBM/UserData to a /QIBM/ProdData location have WASPreUpgrade use the wasprofile.properties, profileregistery.xml files to locate the profile and use the profile's setupcmdline script to identify the install location for the profile. The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in fix pack 8.5.5.16.
