JR62047: DOC - DOCUMENTATION DOESN'T WARN YOU THAT THE MAXIMUMHEAPSIZE VALUE CHANGES WHEN YOU UPGRADE

APAR status

• Closed as documentation error.

Error description

• When you upgrade to IBM Business Automation Workflow 19.0.0.2,
  you might have reduced the maximumHeapSize, such as from 4096MB
  to 2048MB. Then, when you upgraded to Business Automation
  Workflow 19.0.0.3, you discovered that the value of the
  maximumHeapSize reverted to 4096MB.
  
  This reversion was by design decision for performance reasons.
  If you decrease the maximum heap size, the value reverts to the
  default when you upgrade. If you increase it, the value is
  preserved.
  
  This behavior wasn't documented in with the maximumHeapSize
  parameter in "Configuration properties for the BPMConfig
  command"
  (https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/en/SS8JB4/com.ibm.w
  bpm.ref.doc/topics/samplecfgprops.html) nor was it mentioned as
  a known issue in "Upgrading profiles from IBM Business
  Automation Workflow V18.0.0.x or V19.0.0.x to IBM Business
  Automation Workflow V19.0.0.3"
  (https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/node/1103457).
