JR61955: RUNNING THE BPMCONFIG -VALIDATE COMMAND FAILS WHEN THE NETWORK SHARED DIRECTORY PROPERTY IS SET TO WINDOWS

workflow.20001.delta.repository

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• The documentation says to provide the UNC path as a Windows
  network shared directory when you configure the network shared
  directory for an IBM Case Manager property
  (bpm.de.caseManager.networkSharedDirectory) in the deployment
  environment (DE) properties file before running the BPMConfig
  command to create the DE.
  
  However, you receive the following error if the network shared
  directory is specified in the DE properties and then validated
  by using the BPMConfig command:
  
  "CWMCB0254E: The property
  bpm.de.caseManager.networkSharedDirectory has an invalid Windows
  path [//server-name/ICMShare/CaseManagement/properties].".

Local fix

• 1. Set bpm.de.caseManager.networkSharedDirectory with the
  default value, for example
  bpm.de.caseManager.networkSharedDirectory=${WAS_INSTALL_ROOT}/Ca
  seManagement/properties
  2. After the DE is created, run the following commands to update
  the network shared directory:
  
  BPMConfig -update -profile your_profile_name -de your_de_name
  -networkDirectory
  \\KG-V-FST-01\ICMShare\CaseManagement\properties -component
  ContentNavigator
  BPMConfig -update -profile your_profile_name -de your_de_name
  -networkDirectory
  \\KG-V-FST-01\ICMShare\CaseManagement\properties -component
  CaseManager
  
  In these commands, the networkDirectory can have the format
  //window123/abc or \\window123\abc
