Error description

  • In some cases there is an issue where the unpack of a v5
    dbextract produces policy zip files of zero bytes size in their
    unpacked location under configured gateway services.
    
    The issue
    arises in cases where a given policy (associated with a catalog
    in v5) becomes logically associated with multiple configured
    gateway services in the v2018/v10 structure.The fix involves
    performing a seek back to the start of the file before a
    subsequent copy takes place.
    

Local fix

Problem summary

  • During the migration of a v5 API Connect configuration to v2018
    or v10, custom policy implementation zip files that are
    associated with a catalog in v5 can appear as zip files of zero
    length after the migration utility archive:extract command has
    been run. These files should contain the full policy
    implementation. This issue appears in cases where a given custom
    policy becomes associated with multiple configured gateway
    services in the target v2018 or v10 environment.
    

Problem conclusion

  • This issue is addressed in a migration utility update
    (10.0.1.1-r1), with the result that custom policy implementation
    zip files are fully populated after archive:unpack for all the
    configured gateway services with which they are associated.
