Upgrading ibm WAS, HTTP webserver 8.5.5.10 to 9.0
Hi All,
We need to upgrade IBM WAS 8.5.5.10 to 9.0. We have went through the documentation for this and seems like the steps involves installation of WAS 9.0 and then migrating configuration from existing WAS 8.5.5.10. I have questions around ibm HTTP websever that is installed within WAS.
We have two servers Production and staging. IBM WAS is installed on both servers for CLM. We are planning to first upgrade WAS on staging and then on Production. Now the problem is we have two instances of IBM HTTP webserver for both production and Staging installed on staging server WAS. So considering this if are to upgrade Staging server WAS, I believe the down time will be required for production server CLM because the HTTP server for production is installed within Stagging WAS. Could anyone confirm if my understanding is correct ?
Thank you,
Kunal
Accepted answer
You have a staging and a production system separated to be able to test stuff on one without impacting stuff on the other.
So you should have two completely separate systems and you do not want to share anything between these environments.
If this is not the case, I would suggest to fix the dependency asap.
