PH09190: SOURCE CONFIG PLUGIN MIGRATOR USES OLD PROP DEF SHEET TO VALIDATE PROPERTIES

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• If a component does not have a property that is required in one
  version, upgrading the plugin to a version where that property
  is no longer required will cause an exception due to an invalid
  value.
  
  
  
  For example, in artifactory source plugin, v11 does not have
  "copyCount" so it is empty. v16 has "copyCount" and it is
  required, the migrator sets the default value to "1". The
  upgrade from v11 to v16 succeeds without error.
  
  v27 does not require "copyCount" to be filled out. v27 sets the
  default value of "copyCount" to "". If the "copyCount" is v11's
  default value ("1"), the migrator will set it to v27's default
  value (""). Since SourceConfigPluginMigrator uses old propdef to
  validate required fields, the plugin upgrade process fails due
  to an invalid value validation exception (failed due to empty
  value).
