IT41382: BIP2114 ON DEPLOY IF NODE ATTRIBUTES IN THE MSGFLOW OR SUBFLOW FILE APPEAR BEFORE THE XMI:TYPE ATTRIBUTE FOR A NODE

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• If properties for a message flow node appear before the node's
  type attribute, and the flow is packaged into a BAR file using
  mqsipackagebar rather than mqsicreatebar, then the message flow
  or subflow may fail to deploy with a BIP2114 error stating ?An
  attempt is being made to modify a locked ConfigObject.?.
  
  For example a .msgflow or .subflow which contains the follow
  node will fail to deploy because the queueName and
  getWithCorrelID properties appear before the xmi:type attribute:
  
  
  <nodes queueName="MY.Q" getWithCorrelID="true"
  xmi:type="ComIbmMQGet.msgnode:FCMComposite_1"
  xmi:id="FCMComposite_1_3" location="434,191" >
     <translation xmi:type="utility:ConstantString" string="MQ
  Get"/>
  </nodes>
  

Local fix

• Update affected .msgflow or .subflow files to ensure that the
  xmi:type attribute appears first in each  element.

  PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:
  If properties for a message flow node appear before the node's
  type attribute, and the flow is packaged into a BAR file using
  mqsipackagebar rather than mqsicreatebar, then the message flow
  or subflow may fail to deploy with a BIP2114 error stating 'An
  attempt is being made to modify a locked ConfigObject.'
  
  For example a .msgflow or .subflow which contains the following
  node will fail to deploy because the queueName and
  getWithCorrelID properties appear before the xmi:type attribute:
  
  <nodes queueName="MY.Q" getWithCorrelID="true"
  xmi:type="ComIbmMQGet.msgnode:FCMComposite_1"
  xmi:id="FCMComposite_1_3" location="434,191">
     <translation xmi:type="utility:ConstantString"
  string="MQGet"/>
  </nodes>
  

Problem conclusion

• The product will now correctly deploy nodes in .msgflow or
  .subflow files when the xmi:type attribute is not the first
  attribute listed on a <nodes> element.
