Instructions for migrating to WebSphere® MQ Version 7.0.

About this task

If you want to migrate to WebSphere MQ Version 7.0, complete this task.

If you migrate from a previous level of this product without first backing up your system, you cannot revert to your previous level, so back up your system before you install WebSphere MQ Version 7.0. You can then back out the upgrade if necessary. If you back out the upgrade, however, you cannot recover any work, such as changes to messages and objects, performed by WebSphere MQ Version 7.0.
Procedure

1. Stop all MQ applications on the machine and the applications accessing remote machines.
2. End all WebSphere MQ activity.
1. Log in as a user in group mqm.
2. Start of changeUse the dspmq command to display the state of all the queue managers on the system.End of change
3. Use the endmqm command to stop all running queue managers.
4. Stop any listeners associated with the queue managers, using the command:

endmqlsr -m QMgrName

5. To check that you have stopped all of them, enter the following:

ps -ef | grep mq

Check that there are no processes listed that are running command lines beginning amq or runmq. Ignore any that start with amqi.
3. Log in as root.
4. Function supplied by the SupportPacs in Table 1 has been superseded by function in WebSphere MQ Version 7.0. Remove these SupportPacs before installing WebSphere MQ Version 7.0.

Review any other installed SupportPacs for their applicability to WebSphere MQ Version 7.0.
5. Start of change If you are migrating from WebSphere MQ Version 5.3 to WebSphere MQ Version 7.0, you must uninstall WebSphere MQ Version 5.3. If you are migrating from WebSphere MQ Version 6.0 to WebSphere MQ Version 7.0, you do not have to uninstall WebSphere MQ because the installation process does it for you. However, when migrating from WebSphere MQ Version 6.0 to WebSphere MQ Version 7.0, before installing you must ensure that you manually remove the file sets which have been retired from WebSphere MQ Version 7.0.
* Remove the following file sets before migrating from WebSphere MQ Version 6.0 to WebSphere MQ Version 7.0:

IBM WebSphere MQ – Common install/uninstall issues for MQ Version on Windows - Middleware News

Creating a log file when you install or uninstall WebSphere MQ WebSphere MQ for Windows is installed using the Microsoft Installer (MSI). If you install the MQ server or client through launchpad , MQPARMS or setup.exe , then a log file is automatically generated in %temp% during installation. Alternatively you can supply parameters on the installation MSI command msiexec to generate a log file, or enable MSI logging system-wide (which generates MSI logs for all install and uninstall operations). If you uninstall through the Windows Add/Remove programs option, no log file is generated. You should either uninstall from the MSI command line and supply parameters to generate a log file, or enable MSI logging system-wide (which generates MSI logs for all install and uninstall operations). For details on how to enable MSI logging, see the following article in the WebSphere MQ product documentation: Advanced installation using msiexec For details on how to enable system-w
