This section provides a detailed description of how to do an in-place upgrade of an AquaLogic Service Bus 2.1 domain to 2.5. AquaLogic Service Bus 2.5 runs on WebLogic Server 9.2.
A wizard is available to help with the upgrade process. Be aware, however, that there are manual steps that also must be performed.
Manually back up the existing 2.1 domain (make a copy of it), including any parts of the domain specific to individual servers within the domain.
Note: | Most of the domain directory contains information pertinent to all servers in the domain. However, in a domain, under the servers subdirectory, there is a subdirectory for each server in the domain—typically AdminServer and the subdirectory names of any managed servers. In those subdirectories there is information pertinent only to those servers. For example, the log files for individual servers are stored in those subdirectories. |
To export the 2.1 configuration:
Note: | You only need to export (select) those resources that you want to retain after the upgrade. |
sbconfig.jar
) to a location of your choice.For more information about exporting configurations, see "Exporting Configuration Data" in System Administration in Using the AquaLogic Service Bus Console.
Note: | You can also use the deployment MBean (DeploymentMBean ) to export configuration data. For information about using DeploymentMBean , see
Using the AquaLogic Service Bus Deployment API in the AquaLogic Service Bus Deployment Guide and the
AquaLogic Service Bus Javadoc. |
To delete the configuration from the AquaLogic Service Bus 2.1 domain:
Note: | The existence of dependencies may require you to delete resources in a particular order, or it may require you to delete projects rather than resources. |
To shut down the AquaLogic Service Bus2.1 domain:
Run the AquaLogic Service Bus upgrade wizard to upgrade the AquaLogic Service Bus 2.1 domain.
\weblogic92\common\bin\
, type upgrade-alsb.cmd
, and press Enter./weblogic92/common/bin/
, type upgrade-alsb.sh
, and press Enter.BEA_HOME represents the directory in which you installed AquaLogic Service Bus.
Note: | If the domain is not valid, the following message is displayed: Unable to read domain configuration! This is not recognized as a valid domain directory. If you select a domain that has already been upgraded, the following message is displayed: The selected domain directory is already an AquaLogic Service Bus 2.5 domain; no upgrade is needed. |
As the upgrade progresses, messages are displayed that provide information about the changes being made by the wizard. When the upgrade process is complete, a summary is displayed.
Start the newly upgraded AquaLogic Service Bus 2.5 domain. On Windows, you can select
StartAll Programs

domain_name
Start Server for AquaLogic Server Bus Domain.
where, domain_name represents the name you gave the domain when you created it.
For more information, see Starting and Stopping Servers: Quick Reference in BEA WebLogic Server 9.2 Documentation.
Note: | Because the AquaLogic Service Bus 2.1 configuration was deleted in Step 3, only the default AquaLogic Service Bus 2.5 configuration exists in the domain at this stage. |
Note: | You must now be working in a session. |
This completes the upgrade of your domain to AquaLogic Service Bus 2.5.
