JR60252: CORRELATION INFORMATION MISSING FROM BPMN EVENTS EMITTED TO IBM BUSINESS AUTOMATION INSIGHTS

Subscribe

You can track all active APARs for this component.

 

APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • The current correlation scheme in BPMN events does not allow for
    event correlation in the following cases:
    - When tracking groups are assigned to PRE and/or POST tracking
    points of an activity, the tracking events emitted by those
    tracking points can't be correlated to the activity events when
    running a BPMN process containing this activity.
    - In addition, there is no way to correlate interaction of BPMN
    events with events emitted by components other than Business
    Automation Workflow in Business Automation Insights.
    
    PRODUCTS AFFECTED:
    IBM Business Automation Workflow

Problem summary

  • No additional information is available.
    

Problem conclusion

  • A fix that enables the correlation of BPMN events in the
    following ways will be included in a future version of Business
    Automation Workflow:
    
    - A specific activityRefId field is added to the PRE and POST
    JSON tracking events attached to an activity so you can
    correlate them with the events emitted for this activity.
    - Specific span-id, parent-span-id, and trace-id fields are
    added to the formatting of BPMN JSON events emitted to Business
    Automation Insights so you can correlate them with events
    emitted by components that Business Automation Workflow can
    interact with.
    
    Before installing this fix, see "ENABLE IBM BUSINESS AUTOMATION
    INSIGHTS FOR IBM BUSINESS AUTOMATION" WORKFLOW"
