26.1. About the Migration Assistant

On the Windows platform, if the installation program detects Version 3.0.2.x of WebSphere, it automatically invokes the Migration Assistant. But one may choose to use XMLConfig or WSCP instead or even skip the migration process.

On AIX and Solaris you have to manually invoke migration.sh. This shell script is found in <WAS_HOME>/bin.

Note

Migration Assistant does not exist on HP-UX because WebSphere V3.5 is the premier release on that platform.
