Prepare the Old Installation
1. Start the old host Integration Server or Microservices Runtime. In the old Deployer, edit all connections to old source and target product servers to point to the new source and target product servers. You do not have to supply user names and passwords if you do not know them. For instructions, see webMethods Deployer User’s Guide.
2. Shut down the old installation.
If the product is running | Take this action... |
As a Windows service | Shut down from the Windows Services window. Services are listed as Software AG product release. |
As a Windows application | Shut down from the Windows start menu. Applications are listed as Software AG > Stop Servers > product . |
On a UNIX system | Use the shut down instructions in the product documentation for your old release. |
3. Upgrade all source and target product servers that were defined in the old Deployer to the new release, and migrate all configurations, data, and assets for those products to the new release, as instructed earlier in this guide.
