Description

Use the asmigrate utility to analyze your J2EE application and translate vendor specific settings to SunJava^TM System Application Server-specific settings that makes the application deployable on Sun's J2EE products.

The following table identifies the supported J2EE product migrations:

Source J2EE Platform	Destination J2EE Platform
WebLogic Application Server 5.1, 6.0, 6.1, 8.1  WebSphere Application Server 4.0, 5.x  Java 2 Platform Enterprise Edition 1.3/1.4  Sun ONE Application Server 6.5, 7.0  Sun Java System Application Server 7 2004Q2  Sun Java System Application Server 8.x  JBoss Application Server 3.0, 3.2  Tomcat Web Server 4.1.12	Sun Java System Application Server 9

Options

-h --help

displays the arguments for launching the MigrationTool.

-v --version

displays the version of the MigrationTool.

-u --ui

invokes the tool in user interface mode.

-c --commandline

invokes the tool in command-line mode.

-q --quiet

launches the tool in quiet mode.

-d --debug

launches the tool in debug mode.

-s --sourcedirectory

identifes the directory where the source code to migrate or scan is present.

-S --sourceserver

identifes the source application server of the applications to be migrated. Possible servers include the following:

• wl51: WebLogic Application Server 5.1

• wl60: WebLogic Application Server 6.0

• wl61: WebLogic Application Server 6.1

• wl81: WebLogic Application Server 8.1

• as65: Sun ONE Application Server 6.5

• as70: Sun ONE Application Server 7.0

• ws40: WebSphere Application Server 4.0

• ws50: WebSphere Application Server 5.x

• ri13: JavaTM^TM 2 Platform Enterprise Edition 1.3

• ri14: JavaTM 2 Platform Enterprise Edition 1.3

• jb30: JBoss Application Server 3.0

• tc41: Tomcat Application Server 4.1

-t --targetdirectory

target or output directory where the migrated application should be placed.

-T --targetserver

target application server to which the application is to be migrated. Use sjsas9 as the target server for Sun Java System Appplication Server 9.

-n --scan-native-apis-only

scans the source code only for the presence of application server specific proprietary APIs.

-p --scan-packages

comma-separated list of Java packages to scan.

-j --java2db

bypasses the creation of the sun-cmp-mapping.xml file. Instead, introduces the option argument into the sun-ejb-jar.xml file. Option arguments are:

• create-tables: if set to true (default), creates tables at deploy. If set to false tables are not created.

• drop-tables: if set to true (default), tables are dropped at undeploy. If set to false tables are not dropped.

• db-vendor-name: name of the database vendor for the application to be migrated. Supported vendor names include: Oracle, Sybase, DB2, Generic SQL92, PointBase, MSSQL.

-m --migrate-cmp

migrates 1.1 compliant CMPs, if any, to 2.0. Option arguments are:

• overwrite-conflicting-accessors: if set to true (default), conflicting accessors are overwritten. If set to false, conflicting accessors are not overwritten.

• comment-pk-modifiers: if set to true (default), setters of primary key are commented. If set to false, setters of primary key are not commented.

-f --file-filter

selects the type of files to migrate. Option arguments are:

• all-files: if specified and set to true (default), migrates all types of files.

• html-files: if specified and set to true (default), migrates HTML files.

• java-files: if specified and set to true (default), migrates Java files.

• jsp-files: if specified and set to true (default), migrates JSP type files.

• xml-files: if specified and set to true(default), migrates all XML type files.

• archive-files: if specified and set to true (default), migrates jar/ear/war/rar file types.

-a --append-logs

if specified, appends the logging to the existing or previous logs without overwriting them. If not specified, previous logs are overwritten.

operands

identifes the archive file (jar/ear/war/rar) to be migrated.

Example 1 Using asmigrate




This example shows how to migrate the source code for a Websphere 4.0 application to Sun Java System Application Server 9 using the command line options. The output directory for the migrated code is /tmp/ws_out. The location of the source code is in directory, /d1/asmt/examples/websphere_4_0/PeopleDB/src.

asmigrate -c -T sjsas9 -S ws40 -t /tmp/ws_out -s /d1/asmt/examples/websphere_4_0/PeopleDB/src

This example shows how to migrate a Websphere 4.0 application archive to Sun Java System Application Server 9.

asmigrate -c -T sjsas9 -S ws40 -t /tmp/ws_out /d1/asmt/examples/websphere_4_0/PeopleDB/WA SDeployed/PeopleDBEnEar.ear

This example shows how to migrate source code from Weblogic 6.1 application to Sun Java System Application Server 9. Only Java files are designated to be migrated. CMP 1.1 beans will be migrated to CMP 2.1 beans and conflicting CMP related accessors will be overwritten.

asmigrate -c -T sjsas9 -S wl61 -t /tmp/ws_out -s /d1/asmt_headstrong/asmt/examples/weblogic_6_x/ iBank -f java-files=true -m overwrite-conflicting-accessors=true

This example shows how to start the migration tool UI.
