Problem summary
PRODUCTS AFFECTED ? IBM Business Process Manager (BPM) Advanced IBM BPM Standard IBM BPM Express LOCAL FIX - None PROBLEM SUMMARY The policy file generated by the BPMCheckOrphanToken command contains nested step elements when there are timer events or message events attached to the activity. Here is a sample of nested steps in a policy file: <process bpdId="25.5ae984b9-56b0-4da6-ace1-c5f6b907b36f" name="Create 4506-T Task"> <step id="bpdid:0efe9500a69668ef:229b4d9f:14017f78a04:-1d2" name="Create 4506-T Task"> <step id="bpdid:25d66ea3e3233186:-1d5c9030:141938e1dfa:-7f76" name="Post Task Creation Timer"> <delete suspendProcess="false"/> </step> </step> </process>
