Incorrect v5 emulation (v5e) policy list in API Connect gateway extension manifest in not validated properly

Troubleshooting


Problem

For API Connect 10.0.5.3 with Datapower 10.5.0.5, you can specify a nonexistent policy in the gateway extensions manifest.

Symptom

If the deploy-polices list as documented in Gateway extension manifest contains a policy that does not exist, the following process might happen.
  • The correctly versioned policy might be removed.
  • The gateway might attempt to apply the invalid v5e policy. 
Earlier and later releases properly validate whether the specified v5e policy is supported before the gateway extension is accepted by API Connect.
