Problem summary

• A security group A is defined in Process Admin with some user
  members and a managers group B. Group A is used as member in a
  participant group. A process with one task using the participant
  group is running.  The managers defined in group B now cannot
  view the instance.
  

Problem conclusion

• The managers were only checked if defined directly on the
  participant group. Manager groups defined for groups that are
  member of a participant group were not considered. This was
  corrected.
