Local fix
1.Stop whole environment 2. Navigate to <Dmgr_profile>/config/cells/<cell_name>/wbi-topologies.xml 3. Modify the "databaseType" attribute in all <provider> elements from "DB2_UNIVERSAL" to be "DB2_DATASERVER" like <provider xmi:id="WBIDBProvider_1297261191072" scope="Cell=Cell02" databaseType="DB2_DATASERVER" providerType="DB2 Universal JDBC Driver Provider" implementationType="XA data source" dbcomponent="WBI_BPCEventCollector"/> 4.Start environment and try again.
Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: IBM Business Process Manager Advanced * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: The problem occurred because the value * * of the databaseType attribute for IBM * * DB2 in the * * <Dmgr_Profile>/config/cells/<cell_name> * * /wbi-topologies.xml file is still * * DB2_UNIVERSAL. It must be updated to * * DB2_DATASERVER. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** After you migrate a profile from IBM WebSphere Process Server V7.0.0.x to IBM Business Process Manager (BPM) V8.0.1.1, log in to the administrative console, go to Servers > Deployment Environment, and click the deployment environment name on the left panel, you see that the linked page is blank.
Problem conclusion
A fix for IBM BPM V8.0.1.1 and V8.0.1.2 is available that resolves the blank Deployment En-vironment page in the administrative console because the value of the databaseType attribute for DB2 in the <Dmgr_Profile>/config/cells/<cell_name>/wbi-topologies.xml file is changed to DB2_DATASERVER during the migration process. With the fix installed, the Deployment Envi-ronment page correctly displays with deployment environment configuration information. On Fix Central (http://www.ibm.com/support/fixcentral), search for JR49156: 1. Select IBM Business Process Manager with your edition from the product selector, the installed version to the fix pack level, and your platform, and then click Continue. 2. Select APAR or SPR, enter JR49156, and click Continue. When you download fix packages, ensure that you also download the readme file for each fix. Review each readme file for additional installation instructions and information about the fix.
