PK55722: XML REG DSMAPCONV FAILS ON V671 AND V672 MAPS

APAR status

• Closed as documentation error.

Error description

• Legacy fix ec108846 was opened because dsmapconv fails on v671
  and v672 maps. The intial review indicated that the utilitiy
  works as designed:
  
   "if any of the input rules cannot be converted,
    the conversion process will fail"
  
  Upon further review it is noted that since the utility generates
  a successful conversion on V8.1.0.1 ( 114 ), then this is a
  defect and will be fixed.

Problem summary

• Resolved this for now, by putting a note in the WTX 8.1.0.2 (rev
  2) and 8.1.0.3 release notes.  For a future release, will put
  the content in the Utility Commands information unit
  (pdf/plug-in).  I submitted CQ2262 to add the content to the
  Utility Commands info unit (pdf/plug-in) in a future release.
  
  For WTX rlse 8.1.0.3, I put the following content in the WTX
  8.1.0.3 (as well as 8.1.0.2 (rev2)) release notes after
  verifying it with Cymby for technical accuracy:
  
  [CQ5277] When you use the dsmapconv command (Map Migration
  utility)
     to convert a map from WebSphere Transformation Extender
  version 6.7.1
     to WebSphere Transformation Extender version 8.1.x, after the
  type tree
     has converted successfully, some of the input map rules might
  not be
     able to be converted, and will cause the dsmapconv map
  conversion
     process to fail. You can view the results in the dsmapconv
  log file.
  
    If the dsmapconv map conversion process fails because some map
  rules
    were unable to be converted, do the following procedures in
  Map Designer
    to complete the conversion process:
  
  1. Open the map.
  2. Delete the unresolved rules.
  3. Compile and rerun the map.
