<h3><A NAME="migexpressnew"></A>Migrate from a WebSphere Application Server - Express Version 5.0.x instance</h3>
<p>Tools for migrating administrative configurations are provided for WebSphere Application Server -
Express Version 5.0.x to be upgraded to WebSphere Application Server - Express Version 5.1.</p>
<p>
Before performing the instructions on this page, do the steps in
<a href="migplan.htm">Step 1: Plan your migration</a>.</p>
<p>
A summary of the product migration process is as follows:</p>
<ol>
<li><a href="#crtv5inst">Create a Version 5.1 instance to receive the WebSphere Application Server -
Express Version 5.0.x configuration</a>.</li>
<li><a href="#savev5config">Save the WebSphere Application Server - Express Version 5.0.x configuration</a>.</li>
<li><a href="#rstv5tov5">Restore the WebSphere Application Server - Express Version 5.0.x configuration into a Version 5.1 instance</a>.</li>
<li><a href="#startv5inst">Start the Version 5.1 instance that receives the WebSphere Application Server - Express Version 5.0.x</a>.</li>
</ol>
<p><a name="crtv5inst"></a><strong>Create a Version 5.1 instance to receive the WebSphere Application Server - Express Version 5.0.x configuration</strong></p>
<p>See <a href="../admin/guicrtapp.htm">Create a new application server</a> in the <em>Administration</em> topic for details on how to create a WebSphere Application Server - Express instance. The name of your WebSphere Application Server - Express Version 5.1 instance must be identical to the Version 5 instance that is to be migrated. </p>
<p><a name="savev5config"></a><strong>Save the WebSphere Application Server - Express Version 5.0.x configuration</strong></p>
<p>
Perform the following steps to save the WebSphere Application Server - Express Version 5.0.x:</p>
<ol>
<li>Enter the following command from the CL command line:
<pre>STRQSH</pre>
<p>This starts the Qshell environment so that you can run WebSphere Application Server scripts.</p>
</li>
<li>Run the WasPreUpgrade script with the following parameters:
<p><strong>Express Version 5.0.x:</strong>
<pre>
/QIBM/ProdData/WebASE51/ASE/bin/WASPreUpgrade
<em>myBackupDirectory</em>
/QIBM/UserData/WebASE/ASE5/<em>5.xExpressInstanceName</em>
-instance <em>5.xExpressInstanceName</em>
</pre>
<p>
where:
<ul>
<li><em>myBackupDirectory</em>(required parameter) is the fully qualified path to the
integrated file system directory where the WasPreUpgrade migration tool stores the saved configuration
and files. The directory is created if it does not already exist. It is also the directory where the
WasPreUpgrade migration tool writes a log file called WasPreUpgrade.log that chronicles the steps
taken by WasPreUpgrade.</li>
<li><em>5.xExpressInstanceName</em> (required parameter) is the name of the WebSphere Application Server - Express Version 5.1 instance to which you are migrating the configuration. This parameter must be identical to the Version 5.0.x instance that is to be migrated. </li>
</ul>
</p>
<p>
For a full explanation of the WasPreUpgrade migration tool and parameters,
see <a href="qshmigpre.htm">The WASPreUpgrade script</a>.
</p>
</li>
</ol>
<p><a name="rstv5tov5"></a><strong>Restore the WebSphere Application Server - Express Version 5.0.x configuration into a Version 5.1 instance</strong></p>
<p>
Perform the following steps to restore the WebSphere Application Server - Express Version 5.0.x configuration into a Version 5.1 instance:</p>
<ol>
<li>Enter the following command from the CL command line:
<pre>STRQSH</pre>
<p>This starts the Qshell environment so that you can run WebSphere Application Server scripts.</p>
</li>
<li>Run the WasPostUpgrade script with the following parameters:
<pre>
/QIBM/ProdData/WebASE51/ASE/bin/WASPostUpgrade
<em>myBackupDirectory</em>
-instance <em>51_instance_name</em>
[-portBlock <em>port_starting_number</em>]
</pre>
<p>Supported arguments include:</p>
<ul>
<li><p><strong>backupDirectoryName</strong><br>
where <em>myBackupDirectory</em> (required parameter) is the fully qualified path to the integrated
file system directory where the the WasPreUpgrade migration tool had previously been used to save
the WebSphere Application Server - Express Version 5.0.x instance configuration.
</p>
</li>
<li><p><strong>-instance</strong><br>
This is a required parameter. The value <em>51_instance_name</em> specifies the name of the WebSphere
Application Server - Express Version 5.1 instance to which the script migrates your configuration. This parameter must be identical to the Version 5 instance that is to be migrated.
</p>
</li>
<li><p><strong>-portBlock</strong>
<br>This is an optional parameter. The value <em>port_starting_number</em> specifies the first of a block of 10-15 consecutive port numbers that are not in use on the iSeries server where the migration is being performed. It is recommended that you always specify the -portBlock parameter if you do not want your instance's ports to conflict with the default instance's ports. </p>

</ul>
</li>
</ol>
<p><a name="startv5inst"></a><strong>Start the Version 5.1 instance that receives the WebSphere Application Server - Express Version 5.0.x</strong></p>
<p>
Perform the following steps to start the Version 5.1 instance that receives the WebSphere Application Server - Express Version 5.0.x:</p>
<ol>
<li>Start the QASE51 subsystem if it is not already started. Enter this command from the CL command line:
<pre>STRSBS QASE51/QASE51</pre>
</li>
<li>Enter the following command from the CL command line:
<pre>STRQSH</pre>
<p>
This starts the Qshell environment so that you can run WebSphere Application Server scripts.</p>
</li>
<li>Run the startServer script with the following parameters:
<pre>
/QIBM/ProdData/WebASE51/ASE/bin/startServer -instance <em>51InstanceName</em>
</pre>
<p>
where <em>51InstanceName</em> is the name of the Version 5.1 instance created in an earlier step. </p>
