Short answer is there is no conversion tool.

As to the how, you make sure you understand what the Server job is doing and rebuild it as an equivalent Parallel job. Now... I hope you're not at one of those shops who have just upgraded to the Enterprise Edition and suddenly think you have convert every single Server job to Parallel?

Looking at the count of such requests, seems like Ascential/IBM would have made good business if they had one :D

They do. It's available through Software Services. But you have to agree to your data being "offshored" to their Bangalore labs, where I suspect that the "tool" is actually someone's brain.

Which is why I said "no" was the short answer. They allegedly exist but are not publically available and as Ray noted, only available if you pay IBM to convert your jobs for you. Even so, their conversion software is only X% successul with X varying wildly, so there is always a final wetware step in the process.
