Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: Busiess Process Manager Advanced, * * Standard and Express users working with * * embedded sub-process BPDs. * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Issues with the removal of * * sub-process BPDs in certain * * situations resulted in these * * sub-process BPDs remaining in the * * repository but inaccessible to users * * to manually remove them. This APAR * * provides a way to temporarily enable * * a clean-up of these orphaned * * sub-process BPDs within a process app. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** This change only provides the means to detect and delete orphaned sub-process BPDs. The following steps must be followed to use it. 1. Edit the eclipse.ini in the Process Designer install directory and add: -DBPM_REMOVE_UNUSED_BPDS=true -Djava.util.logging.Level=ALL 2. Start Process Designer. 3. Open each Process App that you want to clean up and then edit and save a BPD. The save will trigger the detection and deletion of orphaned sub-process BPDs in the Process App. 4. Stop Process Designer. 5. Remove the lines added in step 1 from eclipse.ini. Do not leave this enabled. It may interfere with normal BPD editing.
Problem conclusion
Provide a mechanism to delete sub-process BPDs that were not properly removed during normal editing. This is only effective on the tip and new snapshots. Existing snapshots will still have the affected sub-processes. FIX AVAILABILITY: Fix for 7.5.1.1 is available on Fix Central, http://www.ibm.com/support/fixcentral/ . Search for APAR JR47346.
