Hello,
I am right now working for Migration project from 7.5.3 to InfoSphere 8.5. Here we're using QualityStage 7.0 along with 7.5.3. In my client server the QualityStage is different engine and all QualityStage related stuff executing from shell script(s). The DataStage server job from 7.5.3 been executing a shell script to standardize the addresses since all jobs were "server edition".
From above process, need your suggestions how to migrate the QualityStage processes from 7.0 to 8.5. I am using DataStage 7.5.3 and QualityStage 7.0 as different processes but those engines are in same server. Not using any QualityStage related stages in current existing server jobs. Please let me know how do i approach to migrate the QualityStage processes into InfoSphere 8.5. Please let me know if there will any PDF provided by IBM.
Clarification: Earlier version like 7.x have QualityStage as individual engine. And it will be a different component to buy. Let me know whether need to buy QualityStage component in InfoSphere 8.5 individually? or InfoSphere 8.5 is available for DataStage engine along with QualityStage engine. Which is correct one?
(My point of view is for all my jobs are Server jobs and running QualityStage processes from shell script and calling those scripts from DataStage)

QualityStage in version 8 is integrated with DataStage - they use the same engine and use the same Designer and Director clients. However they remain separately licensed products, so you will still need to buy licenses for each. If you need to keep them separate, use different projects.
There is a conversion utility for QualityStage version 7 jobs to render them compatible with version 8, which is radically different.

This is not correct. QualityStage uses the same engine that DataStage does. But you do have to license QualityStage in addition to DataStage - this is unchanged from earlier versions.
