APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• UDDI API WSDL and XSD documents being synchronised multiple
  times resulting in duplicate documents within WSRR.
  

Local fix

• Not applicable
  

Problem summary

• When running the scheduled UDDI synchronization process, some
  WSDL and XSD documents might be loaded into WSRR more than once.
  This is known to occur for the UDDI API WSDL and XSD documents
  included in a Centrasite UDDI registry.
  

Problem conclusion

• If the names of the entities derived from the documents loaded
  into WSRR do not match what is expected according to the
  specifications supported by the mapping process then the UDDI
  references will not be set correctly on those entities. As a
  result, when another entity is encountered in UDDI that
  references the same service definition documents, they will be
  loaded into WSRR again.
  
  We cannot support synchronization of services that do not
  entirely conform with the support mapping specifications so a
  mechanism has been implemented to allow certain document
  references to be blocked or ignored during the UDDI
  synchronization processing.
  
  You can prevent a particular document from being loaded by
  specifying all or part of the (overview)URL within a user
  configuration item called 'UDDIFilterConfiguration'.
  
  The format of the content of this configuration item is:
  
  <UDDI_CONTENT_FILTERING>
       <IGNORE_URL>http://sample.url/sample.wsdl</IGNORE_URL>
       <IGNORE_URL>http://sample2.url/sample2.wsdl</IGNORE_URL>
       ...
  </UDDI_CONTENT_FILTERING>
  
  You can use a * character as a wild card at the beginning or
  end of a URL string. If you specify only a * character then all
  URLs will be ignored. For example:
  
  <IGNORE_URL>*uddi.org*</IGNORE_URL>
  <IGNORE_URL>*my.url/doc.wsdl</IGNORE_URL>
  <IGNORE_URL>http://my.uddi.server/uddi.org*</IGNORE_URL>
  <IGNORE_URL>*</IGNORE_URL>
  
  The process for applying this configuration to WSRR is as
  follows:
  
  1) You must first create a text file containg a list of URLs
  or fragments of URLs that you do not want to be loaded during
  UDDI synchronisation. This list must conform to the example
  format given previously.
  
  2) Login to the web UI and switch to the 'Configuration'
  perspective before navigating to: Active Profile -> User
  Configurations -> Load User Configuration
  
  3) Specify the path to the text file and enter a configuration
  item name of: UDDIFilterConfiguration
  
  4) Once the configuration item has been loaded successfully it
  will take effect immediately.
  
  This facility is targeted for inclusion in fix pack 5 for WSRR
  v6.3, fix pack 6 for WSRR v7.0, fix pack 3 for WSRR v7.5 and fix
  pack 2 for WSRR v8.0.
