Perform a Custom Migration
1. On the machine that hosts the new My webMethods Server, open a command window or shell, go to the new_Software AG_directory/MWS/bin/migrate directory, and run the command migrate.{bat|sh}.
2. The utility asks for the full path to the Software AG directory that contains the old My webMethods Server installation or the ZIP file you made earlier.
3. The utility asks whether to import migration settings. Enter N.
4. For each instance in the old My webMethods Server installation, the utility asks the following:
a. Whether to migrate the instance.
b. Whether to use the live database or a cloned database with the migrated instance. If you respond that you are using a cloned database, the utility prompts for the database URL, user, and password.
Note:
You cannot use a new database that contains no data.
c. If the old instance was connected to Universal Messaging, whether to use the old Universal Messaging URL or a new URL for the migrated instance. If you respond that you want to use a new URL, the utility prompts for the URL.
If the old instance was not connected to Universal Messaging, whether to specify a connection to Universal Messaging now or at some later time. If you respond that you want to specify the connection now, the utility prompts for the Universal Messaging URL.
d. Whether to use a new node name for the migrated instance.
5. The utility asks whether to export your settings from this session. If you want to perform other migrations by importing the settings from this session, enter Y. If not, enter N.
6. The utility asks whether to begin migration. If you enter Y, the utility migrates the instances you specified.
