Error description
After the migration option to re-install the application with the migration generated scripts there is a failure when to running install_all_apps.jy The instructions in the script, say install_all_BLAs.txt must run before install_all_apps.jy However, there is an error when this is run: WASX7017E: Exception received while running file "<migrationdirectory>/nnnnnnnn/ dmgr_backup/install_all_BLAs.txt"; exception information: com.ibm.bsf.BSFException: excption from Jython
Local fix
Using this as a reference: http://pic.dhe.ibm.com/infocenter/wasinfo/v8r5/index.jsp?topic=% 2Fcom.ibm.websphere.migration.express.doc %2Fae%2Frmig_WASPostUpgrade.html where it notes this: Business level applications, assets, and composition units The install_all_BLAs.jy script is generated and placed in the backup directory. This script can migrate all business level applications, assets, and composition units located in the backup directory to your target profile. The WASPostUpgradeBLAHelper.bat/.sh script, located in the <WAS_PROFILE_ROOT>/bin directory, is used to migrate the business level applications, assets and composition units in the install_all_BLAs.txt file. Member such as INSTALL.WAS855.WZTDMGR.CNTL(INSTBLA) can be editted as follows: BPXBATCH SH + <WAS_PROFILE_ROOT>/bin/WASPostUpgradeBLAHelper.sh + /<migration dir/nnnnnnnn>/dmgr_backup/install_all_BLAs.txt + 1> /tmp/wsadmin_PBLA.out 2> /tmp/wsadmin_PBLA.err to run the WASPostUpgradeBLAHelper.sh
Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All users of IBM WebSphere Application * * Server V8.0 and V8.5 who are migrating * * applications manually. * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Instructions in the generated * * install_all_apps.jy script were * * incomplete and not well formatted * * causing confusion. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** Updated the instructions in the install_all_apps.jy script to be more precise on how to create the BLA data and also on how to install all the applications manually or one at a time.
Problem conclusion
Although there was no real problem with the migration itself, the manual instructions written to the generated install_all_apps.jy script were incomplete and very confusing, particularily when dealing with the BLA data. This change provides a better set of instructions to install application manually. APAR PI09910 is currently targeted for inclusion in Fix Packs 8.0.0.9 and 8.5.5.3 of WebSphere Application Server V8.0 and V8.5.
