To help you migrate, MQSeries for AS/400, V5.1 includes a utility program
called MIGRATEMQM. This program migrates your MQSeries configuration
and objects to MQSeries for AS/400, V5.1. It also creates a new queue
manager with the same name as the original one. (This queue manager will
act as the default queue manager on your new system unless you have
already defined a default queue manager). The migration program reads
information from the earlier release and creates a matching queue manager at
the new level. It also creates all the MQSeries objects such as queues and
channels. It copies messages held on the old queue manager’s queues to the
new queue manager. It does not, however, migrate your authority definitions.

In MQSeries for AS/400, V5.1, each queue manager has its own library
containing that queue manager’s journals and journal receivers. In earlier
versions of MQSeries for AS/400, all the journals were in QUSRSYS and all
the receivers were in QMQMDATA. The migration program obtains the
configuration and message data from the journals and data library of the
earlier release.
