Error description
If an external Elasticsearch service is configured for IBM Process Federation Sever, you'll see the following NullPointerException when you runs the Process Federation Server validation tool: [2/12/20 17:05:49:145 CET] 0000005f SystemErr R java.lang.NullPointerException [2/12/20 17:05:49:145 CET] 0000005f SystemErr R at com.ibm.bpm.federated.security.servlet.ValidatorServlet.showFede ratedSystems(ValidatorServlet.java:2796) [2/12/20 17:05:49:145 CET] 0000005f SystemErr R at com.ibm.bpm.federated.security.servlet.ValidatorServlet.checkfed system(ValidatorServlet.java:1119) [2/12/20 17:05:49:146 CET] 0000005f SystemErr R at com.ibm.bpm.federated.security.servlet.ValidatorServlet.doGet(Va lidatorServlet.java:215)
Local fix
Problem summary
The Process Federation Server validation tool must use different APIs to get the indexName for an embedded Elasticsearch and an external Elasticsearch. However, the tool uses the same API, so you receive this NullPointerException when you use an external Elasticsearch.
Problem conclusion
Temporary fix
