v5 node add to v6 dmgr

[bic1...@gmail.com]

I have two v5.1.1.7 nodes all ready in a v5.1.1.7 deployment manager.
We also have a v5.1.1.7 IHS web server.

I want to add them to a v6 deployment manager and move the apps as
well. Is this a simple addnode in v6 admin console and include apps
checked? Also, I assume we would create the web server in v6 admin
console?

If the nodes are already members of a v5 Cell, you have get them out of
the Cells and move them to WAS6 Cell. When you do that you will loose
your Applications, if they were installed after the nodes were
federated.

Do you want to keep your WAS5.1.1.7 nodes at the same level ?? If you
are ready for migration, you could have used the migration tool. I am
not sure if the migration tool allows you to move cell members from one
Cell to other.

To my knowledge there is no profile export mechanism in v5.

There are a couple of options which you can follow.

I suggest having a skim through the WebSphere Application Server V6
Migration Guide.
