JR51597: YOU RECEIVE AN ERROR FROM RUNNING THE DBUPGRADE COMMAND WHEN MIGRATING IBM BPM FROM V8.5.0.1 TO V8.5.5.0

Version 8.5 Refresh Pack 6 for the IBM Business Process Manager products

APAR status

• Closed as fixed if next.

Error description

• When you created a IBM Business Process Manager V8.5.0.x
  deployment environment with a cell name that starts with a
  numeral and then upgrade to IBM BPM V8.5.5.0, you must
  complete the database upgrade by using the DBUpgrade command.
  However, doing so causes the migration to fail and reports
  validation errors like the following validation errors:
  
  CWMCB0260E: The property bpm.cell.name has an invalid value
  [1ABCCell01] because 1ABCCell01 does not start with a letter.
  CWMCB0260E: The property bpm.dmgr.nodeName has an invalid
  value [1ABCCellManager01] because 1ABCCellManager01 does not
  start with a letter.
  CWMCB0260E: The property bpm.de.node.1.name has an invalid
  value [1ABCNode01] because 1ABCaNode01 does not start with a
  letter.
