APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • Because IBM Business Process Manager (BPM) queries the
    LSW_EPV_VAR_VALUE table whenever IBM BPM tries to get the value
    of the environment variable, performance might be slow if your
    process application uses the environment variable heavily.
    
    PRODUCTS AFFECTED
    IBM BPM
    IBM BPM Express
    

Local fix

  • Load the environment variables into the processes once (such as
    after starting the process) and store the values in local
    variables to avoid multiple queries to an environment variable
    within a process instance.
    

Problem summary

  • No additional information is available.
    

Problem conclusion

  • A fix will be included in a future IBM BPM release that
    introduces a new cache for the environment variable value to
    avoid repeated queries of the LSW_EPV_VAR_VALUE table.
    

Temporary fix
