Migration from Windows to HP-UX - Flat File Issue

  • 1.  Migration from Windows to HP-UX - Flat File Issue

    Posted Fri May 30, 2008 01:49 AM

    Peer

    We are currently planning to migrate our webMethods Integration Server from
    Windows 2003 Server Platform to 64-bit HP-UX Itanium Platform

    I would like to know whether anyone has experiences about this kind of migration, esp regarding flat file procesisng in which Windows is using CRLF (Carriage Return Line Feed), while HP-UX is using CR.

    My concerns are whether I need to do any code modification to allow Windows-HP-UX interopereability.

    1. Basic Flat File Processing (i.e. reading/writing Windows Files from the Unix-based I.S.)
    2. Basic Flat File Processing with Encryption (PGP)
      → since encryption (PGP) is pretty byte-sensitive (i.e. CRLF will be different from CR), does it pose a problem after I migrate from Windows to Unix
    3. FTP Get/Put File
      Aware of any issues FTP Put/Get from a Windows-based FTP Server

    Appreciate your expertise

    Thanks in advance

    Hi Stephen,

    i would give it a second thought because from my knowledge the itanium platform is currently not supported by the JDK5 and JDK6 and I guess JDK5 may be necessary with future SAG/webMethods Versions, although 7.1 still runs with and is supported with the usage of JDK 1.4.2

    Regards
    Rainer
