Upgrading IBM Case Manager to IBM Business Automation Workflow

Edit online

 Traditional: 
Install Business Automation Workflow and upgrade your environment. You can benefit from the full spectrum of Business Automation Workflow capabilities to manage and deploy unified process and case solutions by using the new common Workflow Center.

This information is about upgrading to Business Automation Workflow on premises. You need to upgrade to Business Automation Workflow on premises before you can upgrade to Business Automation Workflow on containers.

When you upgrade to Business Automation Workflow, your case data and navigator configuration are preserved, and no migration is necessary. The main steps for the upgrade include:
  • Upgrade Content Platform Engine.
  • Upgrade IBM Content Navigator.
  • Augment your case installation with an IBM Business Automation Workflow topology.

In-flight runtime case solutions will continue to work after the system upgrade, and new case solutions can be added, as before the upgrade. You have the option to manage the case solutions in your development environment in the enhanced Workflow Center. For more information, see Workflow Center.

After you finish upgrading to Business Automation Workflow on premises, you can promote your projects and then upgrade to Business Automation Workflow on containers.
