Gateway Migration Utility

Gateway Migration Utility (GMU) is a standalone, Java-based command-line tool for migrating Gateway-specific resources between Layer7 API Gateways. GMU commands let you control which resources on a Layer7 API Gateway are migrated, and how they are migrated. You can automate migrations using GMU commands and the Layer7 API REST Management API.

For more information on the Gateway Migration Utility see the production documentation, Migrate Gateways section.

Use GMU to do these common tasks:

• Provision new Layer7 API Gateways (for example, from Test to Production)
• Migrate policies between Layer7 API Gateways
• Create templates to:
  • Easily make minor changes to Layer7 API Gateways
  • Migrate the same bundle with different environment configurations to different Layer7 API Gateways

Getting the GMU

1. Go to Broadcom Support: http://support.broadcom.com and:
   1. Get the Layer7 API REST Management API documentation.
   2. Download the Gateway Migration Utility.zip and extract the contents to a directory.
2. Open a command prompt or terminal, and set Java environment variables.
   Windows: The %PATH% environment variable must contain the path of the bin directory for the Java SDK/JRE.
   Linux/Unix: One of the following methods: JAVA_HOME, SSG_JAVA_HOME, JAVA in the path, or use the argument –jdk to specify the location of the Java SDK/JRE.
3. Go to the extracted .zip directory, and run GMU:
   Windows: GatewayMigrationUtility.bat
   Linux/Unix: ./GatewayMigrationUtility.sh
