what will be the best approach to start this migration and Upgrade.
1.Upgrade db from Oracle 12c to 19 c,
2.Install new pega 8.7 version on new tomcat server
3.import application with skimmed ruleset.

Hi,
The Rules are stored in database, changing Application server will not affect the Rules availability as long as source is same database.
With the assumption that websphere and tomcat servers are pointing to same database, below approach can be follwoed:
1. Upgrade db from Oracle 12c to 19 c,
2. Upgrade the Pega from Pega 7.2.1 to Pega 8.7
3. Install new pega 8.7 version on new tomcat server
4. Move app server specific configurations from webshpere to tomcat
Ex: SSL certs, JDBC driver jars, Custom JVM arguments, Custom configuration like prconfig entries etc.
Thanks
