APAR status
Closed as program error.
Error description
If you run the BPMDeleteSnapshot command, orphaned tasks are created if tasks that refer to the snapshot being deleted belong to BPD instances that refer to another snapshot as well. It appears as if entries in the corresponding LSW_TASK table remain, although they refer to a deleted snapshot. When process instances are migrated to a new snapshot, tasks that no longer appear in the new process model are not migrated to the new snapshot and continue to refer to the old snapshot.
