Problem summary

  • ****************************************************************
    * USERS AFFECTED:  Stack Products using the IBM WebSphere      *
    *                  Application Server v8 MachineChange option  *
    *                  of the migration tool.                      *
    ****************************************************************
    * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Certain Stack Product variables are     *
    *                      getting updated during a                *
    *                      MachineChange migration.                *
    ****************************************************************
    * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
    ****************************************************************
    If a variable is used as part of defining the location of an
    Embedded Derby Database or a shared library which needs to be
    gathered and relocated during a migration, the variables may
    be updated to reflect the new location.  However, stack
    products may have already updated these variables.
    

Problem conclusion

  • Extended the migration framework to allow Stack Products to
    register variables which should be ignored when processing the
    paths which contain them.
    
    The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in
    fix pack 8.0.0.2.  Please refer to the Recommended Updates
    page for delivery information:
    http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=180&uid=swg27004980
    

Temporary fix

  • Reapply the wsadmin command which changed the variable after
    the migration has completed.  Fix up any paths which may have
    changed.
