WebLogic Server 8.1 Upgrade Guide

Mapping weblogic.properties to 6.x config.xml Configuration Attributes

When upgrading from versions prior to WebLogic Server 6.0, use the weblogic.properties converter in the Administration Console to convert weblogic.properties parameters to config.xml attributes.

Some configuration attributes have changed in WebLogic Server versions subsequent to 6.x. The recommended upgrade path

The weblogic.properties mapping table below shows which config.xml, web.xml, or weblogic.xml attribute handles the function formerly performed by a weblogic.properties parameter.
