The WebSphere Application Server Migration tools are a set of modernization tools that can be used to quickly and comprehensively analyze an application to determine its contents and what is needed to migrate to Liberty, a new version of WebSphere traditional, or a new version of Java.
The Migration Toolkit for Application Binaries (binary scanner) is a command-line tool used to analyze application binaries.
T
he binary scanner can produce a more comprehensive report for an application
which includes
configuration
, flagging of problematic areas of code
,
and a view of
the
contents within the archive. For more information, see
Alex's
What is the Migration Toolkit for Application Binaries?
blog post.
The WebSphere Application Server Migration Toolkit (source scanner) is an Eclipse-based plugin that allows you to scan an application’s source within your development environment. This tool
uses the same catalog of rules and
flags areas of the code that may be problematic when migrating to your chosen platform. Automatic code changes (quick fixes) on those flagged areas are provided when possible. For more information, see our
Migrating to Liberty
documentation.

release of the binary scanner?
Java SE 16 Migration
The --targetJava=java15 non-LTS (Long-Term-Support) option was deprecated and replaced with the --targetJava=java16 non-LTS option. Setting --targetJava=java16 includes migration rules for every Java SE release since Java 11. Java SE 16 is a non-LTS Java version. To migrate to an LTS Java version, migrate to Java SE 11 using the --targetJava=java11 option.
TLS/SSL Configuration Migration to Liberty
Additional support
was
added for security configuration migration
:
WebSphere traditional TLS/SSL
configuration is now migrated to a Liberty server.xml. Additionally, referenced keystores and
truststores are now copied to the output folder when --includeSensitiveData is specified.
To try out the new features, download the 21.0.0.
