<h3><A NAME="migover"></A>Overview</h3>
<p>Migration consists of stages that include scoping, skills migration, code migration, and runtime migration. Refer to these articles for reference on these stages and other general information on the migration process:</p>

<p><strong>Note:</strong> These articles are not iSeries specific and may contain information not pertinent to iSeries.</p>
<p>WebSphere Application Server - Express migration leverages the existing environment and applications and changes them to be compatible with the WebSphere Application Server - Express environment. Existing application components and configuration settings are applied to the WebSphere Application Server - Express environment during the migration process.</p>
<p>Migration involves modifying your applications so that they run in WebSphere Application Server - Express and then migrating those applications and your environment to WebSphere Application Server - Express. The latter step can be performed by using the migration tools shipped with the product.</p>
<p><strong>Migration Tools</strong></p>
<p>Product migration functions are provided by the the WebSphere Application Server migration tools. These tools perform migration from Version 3.5.x and from WebSphere Application Server - Express Version 5.0.x to WebSphere Application Server - Express Version 5.1. The migration tools are comprised of the following commands:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>WASPreUpgrade</strong> saves Version 3.5 or WebSphere Application Server - Express Version 5.0.x configuration data and applications from a previous version to a backup directory. For more information, see <a href="qshmigpre.htm">The WASPreUpgrade script</a>.</LI>
<Li><strong>WASPostUpgrade</strong> restores Version 3.5 or WebSphere Application Server - Express Version 5.0.x configuration data and applications into WebSphere Application Server - Express Version 5.1. This command uses the output from the WASPreUpgrade command. For more information, see <a href="qshmigpost.htm">The WASPostUpgrade script</a>.</LI>
</ul>
<p>The following tools are also available to assist you in migrating your applications:</p>
<ul>
<li><p><strong>MigrateWC</strong> converts JSP Specification .91 or 1.0 application components to JSP Specification 1.1 components. It also converts Servlet 2.1 specification components to Servlet 2.2 specification components. The converted components are written to a new file. This tool is not shipped with WebSphere Application Server. For more information and to download this tool, see the <a href="http://www7b.software.ibm.com/wsdd/" target="_">WebSphere Developer Domain</a> <img src="www.gif" width="18" height="15" alt="Link outside Information Center" border="0">. Search in the <strong>Downloads</strong> section for MigrateWC.</p></li>
<li><p><strong>CACT</strong> analyzes compiled servlet and enterprise bean Java class files and provides information on any API that is deprecated or not supported in WebSphere Application Server Version 4, Version 5, or Version 5.1. This tool is not shipped with WebSphere Application Server. For more information and to download this tool, see the <a href="http://www7b.software.ibm.com/wsdd/" target="_">WebSphere Developer Domain</a> <img src="www.gif" width="18" height="15" alt="Link outside Information Center" border="0">. Search in the WSDD <strong>Library</strong> section for CACT.</p></li>
<li><p><strong>WebSphere Development Studio Client (WDSC)</strong> is part of the WebSphere Studio family of application development tools. This tool can be used to import your application source files, set the desired J2EE version in the product, for example to J2EE Version 1.3, and rebuild the source files. Use of changed, not supported, and deprecated APIs are reported through compilation errors. After it is built, the application can be tested with the version of WebSphere Application Server that is included with the tool.</p></li>
