Error description
When using a generated policy file for instance migration, a "BPD id is invalid" error occurs during policy file validation and instance migration is not allowed. The error occurs due to a BPD defined in a toolkit and the initial lookup when doing the validation does not search the dependent toolkits for the specified artifact. Even though the BPD entry can be found in the database and does indeed exist.
Local fix
Use moveToken REST API and executing it on each instance manually.
Problem summary
ABSTRACT ? GENERATED POLICY FILE DOES NOT PASS VALIDATION DUE TO BPD ID IS INVALID ERROR ERROR DESCRIPTION - When using a generated policy file for instance migration, a "BPD id is invalid" error occurs during policy file validation and instance migration is not allowed. The error occurs due to a BPD defined in a toolkit and the initial lookup when doing the validation does not search the dependent toolkits for the specified artifact. Even though the BPD entry can be found in the database and does indeed exist. PRODUCTS AFFECTED IBM Business Process Manager (BPM) Advanced IBM BPM Standard IBM BPM Express LOCAL FIX - n/a PROBLEM SUMMARY- When you migrate inflight instances from one snapshot to another by using a policy file, you encounter the following error if a BPD is in a reference toolkit: ?The value <BPD_id> specified for attribute bpdid in XML element process is invalid. The policy file is generated by the BPMCheckOrphanTokens command and the BPD ID is automatically populated accordingly. Therefore, the error should not apply because the BPD does exist.

A fix is available for IBM BPM V8.5.0.1 to properly locate the BPD from a toolkit and resolve the ?BPD ID is invalid? error.
