  • As migration starts, an error message might be caused by one or more of the following conditions:
    • Inadequate access permissions prevent reading required files, or properties or files are missing.
    • Other applications are using a required file.
    • During Db2 server migration, WebSphere Application Server Liberty unexpectedly stopped running.
  • After the migration is complete or has performed significant activities, an error might occur.
