Upgrade from IBM MQ 9.3, 9.4 to MQ 10.0 in Windows

Question & Answer


Question

This techdoc provides the necessary steps to upgrade IBM MQ 9.4 (or MQ 9.3 or earlier) in Windows to MQ 10.0

The steps are applicable to both release types (LTS and CD), other version.releases, and
other fix pack levels.

The steps describe a standard upgrade path to have only 1 version of MQ installed in the server.
These steps do not use the 'multi-version' feature in which several versions of MQ can co-exist ("side-by-side").
