Upgrading in AIX from MQ 9.0.0.1 to MQ 9.1.0.0 LTS, or to 9.2 or to 9.3
Content
This tutorial shows all the steps to upgrade in AIX, from MQ 9.0.0.1 Long Term Support (LTS) to MQ 9.1.0.0 LTS.
This is a straight upgrade and does not exploit the 'multi-version' feature in which several versions of MQ can co-exist ("side-by-side").
The upgrade instructions apply also for MQ 9.2 and 9.3.
Notes about older releases:
- You can upgrade from MQ 8.0 to MQ 9.1 without first going through MQ 9.0.
- You can upgrade from MQ 8.0 to MQ 9.2 without first going through MQ 9.0 or
MQ 9.1.
- You cannot migrate directly from MQ 7.x to MQ 9.1 or MQ 9.2:
- If you are using MQ 7.0, then you will need to upgrade to MQ 8.0, then to MQ 9.1 or
MQ 9.2
- If you are using MQ 7.1 or MQ 7.5, then you will need to upgrade to MQ 8.0 or
MQ 9.0, then to MQ 9.1 or MQ 9.2.
- You can upgrade from MQ 8.0 to MQ 9.1 without first going through MQ 9.0.
- You can upgrade from MQ 8.0 to MQ 9.2 without first going through MQ 9.0 or
MQ 9.1.

- If you are using MQ 7.0, then you will need to upgrade to MQ 8.0, then to MQ 9.1 or
MQ 9.2
- If you are using MQ 7.1 or MQ 7.5, then you will need to upgrade to MQ 8.0 or
MQ 9.0, then to MQ 9.1 or MQ 9.2.
Prior to the upgrade, you need to take a full backup of your MQ 9.0 queue managers.
Why? Because the upgrade of MQ, such as from MQ 9.0 to MQ 9.1 is NOT reversible.
If you need to back out and revert back to MQ 9.0, you will need to delete the upgraded MQ 9.1 queue managers and restore the MQ 9.0 queue managers from backup.
