APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• When you use the Business Process Archive Manager, you cannot
  archive a process instance that has the same process name as
  another process instance in the archive. This restriction is
  documented in ?Archiving completed process and task instances?
  (http://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSQH9M_7.0.0/com.ibm
  .websphere.bpc.z.doc/doc/bpc/r0_archive.html?lang=en).
  
  Determining the process instances to archive is done in batches
  (according to slice size). If all of the top level process
  instances of a slice encounter this restriction, then child
  processes instances may get incorrectly archived.
  

Local fix

Problem summary

• Parent process instances and their corresponding child process
  instances are archived together in batches (according to slice
  size). If none of the parent process instances in a single slice
  can be archived because of name duplication in the archive
  database, the query to retrieve the corresponding child process
  instances erroneously returns too many results.
  

Problem conclusion

• A fix is available that stops the current slice processing when
  all top-level process instances of the slice have process
  instances with the same name in the archive.
