Performing parallel migration for an integration node (broker)
You can use parallel migration to perform a staged migration process by creating a new Version 10.0 integration node to run in parallel with your existing integration node. You can then migrate your application logic from your existing integration node to your new integration node.
Before you begin
- Plan your migration; see Preparing for migration.
- Perform pre-migration tasks; see Performing pre-migration tasks.
- If your deployment uses functions that integrate with WebSphere® MQ, or requires that the integration
node has a specified queue manager, make sure that you have a
supported version of WebSphere MQ. For
information about IBM Integration Bus functions
that require WebSphere MQ, see Installing WebSphere MQ.
- If you are reusing an existing WebSphere MQ deployment,
migrate your queue managers and other resources to a supported
version of WebSphere MQ by following
the instructions that are provided in the WebSphere MQ product documentation.Note: If you are reusing an existing WebSphere MQ deployment, you can configure the new IBM Integration Bus Version 10.0 integration nodes to use the same queue managers as the existing integration nodes. You do not have to create new queue managers for the new integration nodes.
- If you are installing a new WebSphere MQ deployment, create one or more queue managers to support the required configuration for your IBM Integration Bus Version 10.0 integration nodes.
- If you are reusing an existing WebSphere MQ deployment,
migrate your queue managers and other resources to a supported
version of WebSphere MQ by following
the instructions that are provided in the WebSphere MQ product documentation.
- Check that you have no aggregations in progress on this integration node. When you migrate an integration node to Version 10.0, all live data that is being stored for aggregations in progress is lost.
- If the integration node runs in a locale that is not listed in Locales, check that the code page is one of the supported code pages, and that the locale is set up correctly.

When you have completed migration, see the tasks in Performing post-migration tasks for information about tasks that you might want to complete after migration.
