Portal V6.1.x on application server V6.1: Migrating search
components
Migrating the search components in your portal might require
preparation steps on the source portal and then additional steps on
the migrated portal.
Portal V6.1.x on application server V6.1: Migrating portal search collections
When you migrate or upgrade IBM WebSphere Portal Express to a later version,
the data storage format and index structure of Portal Search is not backward compatible
between the different versions. If you migrate your portal to a later
version and want to continue using your search collections, you need
to preserve them before you migrate your portal and import
them into the upgraded portal after the migration.
Portal V6.1.x on application server V6.1: Migrating web search collections
You migrate web search collections to IBM WebSphere Portal Express by exporting each
web search collection from the earlier portal and then importing the
web search collection into the new portal. You can also use the same
functionality to move web search collections to a production portal
after verifying them on a test portal, or to move web search collections
to a configuration with remote search after verifying them locally
on a portal.
