APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • If you configure IBM Process Center to automatically delete
    unnamed snapshots that are no longer needed on the server, the

    only; unnamed snapshots from other branches remain on the
    server.

     that unnamed snapshots should be deleted from.

Problem conclusion

  • A fix will be included in IBM BPM V8.5.7.0 cumulative fix
    2016.09 that updates the automated cleanup task and ensures that

    the default branch.
