I don't know if there's a "best way" to migrate. It depends on the
application (how dependant it is on platform specifics) and the file or
database system.

Subject: Powerhouse - migrate/port from HP3000 MPE to UNIX or Windows




Hi, what is the best way to port/migrate/run PowerHouse applications =
(with
TurboIMAGE) from a HP 3000 / MPE to UNIX or Windows Servers.

Are there runtimes for Powerhouse on UNIX or Windows, which can be used =
for
the applications developed for HP3000.=20
Are there porting or migration tools from PowerHouse to COBOL / JAVA.=20

What is the best way for the exchange of the environment, whereby the
applications should be still working under UNIX or Windows.

Thanks a lot, regards Peter=20
