Error description

• IBM Rational Team Concert(RTC) build definition property "SYNC"
  for IBM Rational Build Forge (BF) is not updating the property
  value for multiple properties.
  
  Use Case:
  1. Define two environment variables (M1 and M2) setting their
  value to arbitrary values (for example 1 and 2) for a BF
  environment (myEnv)
  2. Create a BF Project that uses this environment
  3. In your BF Project, update the environment variables using
  the following step
  .set env myEnv "M1=10"
  .set env myEnv "M2=20"
  4. Create a BF build definition in RTC.
  5. Select your BF project
  6. Create build properties in RTC build definition  to
  correspond with your environment variables (M1 and M2)
  7. Add the following as your properties' description
  NORMAL, SET, SYNC - which should cause RTC to synchronize with
  Build Forge after a build finishes to pull the updated values
  8. Request a build using this RTC build definition
  
  What is expected:
  We would expect to see both M1 and M2 update with the new
  values, 10 and 20 respectively.
  
  
  What is observed:
  M1 updates to have a value of 10 but M2 shows the old value in
  RTC. In BF the value of M2 is updated to 20.
