Migration version 6.0 to & - Checking your Versions

Hello Everyone

I am currently busy with a migration from version 6.0 to 7.

Prior to your migration it is important to ensure that you are on the most recent Fixpacks for both your 6 and 7 environment.

Finding your current Portal Version:

On Windows : run %WPS_HOME%\bin\WPVersionInfo.bat (e.g) c:\WebSphere\PortalServer\bin\WPVersionInfo.bat

On Unix : run $WPS_HOME/bin/versionInfo.sh (e.g) /opt/WebSphere/PortalServer/bin/WPVersionInfo.sh

You will notice that my current fix pack level is 6.0.1.5 so it's installing more fixpacks for me :-)

Will add that process as well.
