Here’s a summary of the Server-to-Parallel ('S2PX') high level workflow, boundary of responsibility, operating components, and outputs.

  1. For analysis: Export legacy Server jobs as ISX files. See link.

  2. Run the S2PX analysis command line tool which will produce a set of CSV files you can analyse using a supplied Excel spreadsheet. See link.

  3. For conversion: Run IBM CCMT command line tool which will generate Server jobs upgraded to use the latest version of Server job stages.

  4. Import these back in to your legacy environment.

  5. Now export your legacy Server jobs as DSX files. See link.

  6. Run the S2PX conversion command line tool which generates and ISX file including Parallel assets derived from the Server assets in the supplied input file.

  7. The S2PX conversion process also generates a set of log files describing the assets encountered during the conversion process and what issue will require manual intervention to make your generated Parallel assets runnable.

  8. A DataStage Developer will use the S2PX logs to apply any required manual remediations to the generated Parallel jobs.

  9. The Parallel jobs can then be deployed to a downstream environment, either manually or by using a MettleCI pipeline triggered by committing your assets to a Git repository.

  10. Note that for IBM Cloud Pak for Data you can use its facilities to import legacy DataStage ISX files into its NextGen DataStage platform.
