15.7.5 Migration Management Tool script
This section describes the System z Migration Management Tool script
(zMMT.sh), that can be used to create the JCL needed for a node migration.
Overview
The second option allows you to create the migration jobs completely on z/OS
using a shell script, zmmt.sh, found in the product bin directory
(/usr/lpp/zWebSphere/V7R0/bin). The script will also create the CNTL and DATA
data sets and the corresponding JCL that is needed to perform the migration.
You will need a response file. This response file contains information about the
node construction. There are two options on how to create a response file:
► Use the MMT
► Rebuild an example found in the Information Center
Note: We suggest using the MMT to build the response file. This makes sure
that any changes brought with new PTFs to the response file are used.
Command
The command can be found in the /bin directory of the product home (default is
/usr/lpp/zWebSphere/V7R0). See Example 15-1 on page 496. To run the script,
the following parameters can be used:
► -responseFile
Specifies the path to your response file. This file can either be encoded in
ASCII or EBCDIC. The shipped samples use ASCII.
► -profilePath
Fully qualified path name to an existing set of generated jobs. This parameter
cannot be used in combination with the -responsefile option.
► -workspace
Specifies the Eclipse work space directory.
► -transfer
Copy generated jobs from a UNIX System Services file system to a pair of
partitioned datasets. The zMMT.sh script first writes the customization jobs to
a UNIX System Services file system.
► -allocate
Attempts to allocate the target datasets
