Upgrading Applications

You can upgrade WLI 8.1 (SP4, SP5 and SP6), WLI 8.5 (SP5 and SP6), WLI 9.2, and WLI 10.2 applications to Oracle WebLogic Integration 10g Release 3 (10.3) by using the upgrade tools. For more information, see WLI Upgrade Guide.

Note:

The upgrade process might involve a large number of files, and therefore might require more memory. So before starting the upgrade process, temporarily increase the maximum amount of memory that the JVM allows for Oracle Workshop for WebLogic. The recommended maximum memory is 1 GB.

Note: You can change the maximum memory by setting the -Xmx value in the workshop.ini file, which, by default, is in the BEA_HOME\workshop_10.3\ folder. For example, you can change the maximum memory from -Xmx768m (default) to -Xmx1G (1 GB).

Note:

After upgrading your applications, revert the maximum memory to a level that is appropriate for development.
