Migration Process Guide

Chapter 3  Analysis and Planning 

This chapter discusses the second stage of migration:  analysis and
planning.  During this stage, you gather and analyze the applications to
be migrated so that you know how much time and effort you will need to
migrate.  At the end of this stage you will have your migration plan
based on this analysis.  This phase, then, involves two activities :

   *   Analyzing the applications

   *   Planning the migration

Careful and thorough analysis will ensure a successful migration plan.
When analyzing an application to be migrated, consider the following:

   *   Which applications will migrate to an MPE/iX-based system?

   *   Does the application have any incompatibilities?

   *   What are the characteristics of the application?

   *   How much time do you have to complete the migration?

   *   What resources are needed to complete the migration?

   *   What are the migration goals for the application?
