Migrating and upgrading
- Migration is the process of updating queue managers, and
other objects, such as applications or administrative procedures. To migrate a queue manager to run
on a new level of code, you must first upgrade IBM MQ to
install the new code level. When you have verified that the upgrade is successful, migrate the queue
manager and all the applications and resources that are associated with it. Before you start this
process, create a migration plan, based on the information in this documentation.
