APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • The Windows start menu entry ?IBM > Business Process Manager
Advanced > Profiles > <profileName> > Start the deployment
manager? does not work because the properties for the shortcut
have an invalid argument ${serverName} instead of server name
"dmgr".

Local fix

  • You can work around the problem by replacing the
${serverName}  to dmgr
Windows -> StartMenu -> IBM -> Business Process Manager ->
Profiles ->  ProfileName ->
- open properties  for "Start the deployment Manager " context
menu

Change the target value
from
C:\IBM\BPM_8013\WebSphere\AppServer\profiles\Dmgtestr01\bin\star
tServer.bat ${serverName}
TO
C:\IBM\BPM_8013\WebSphere\AppServer\profiles\Dmgtestr01\bin\star
tServer.bat dmgr
