Abstract:
1. A method of migrating a system environment on which one or more applications depend between platforms, comprising the steps of: discovering system services on which the one or more applications depend directly during operation of the one or more applications on a source platform having a plurality of system services; obtaining system services on which the one or more applications depend indirectly from: discovering configurations of the system services on which the one or more applications depend directly and indirectly; generating a dependency model instance for a source environment reflecting: from: converting the dependency model instance for the source environment into a dependency model instance for the target environment reflecting: according to: setting the system services on which the applications depend directly and indirectly and their configurations on the target platform according to the dependency model instance for the target platform, to realize the migration of the system environment on which the applications depend from the source to the target platform.
