  INVOKE INSTANCE MIGRATION USING WSADMIN COMMAND
  ERROR DESCRIPTION

  LOCAL FIX - N/A
  
  None
  
  PROBLEM SUMMARY
  Currently process instance migration of in-flight data can only
  be done manually using the Process Admin console.  There is no
  API or alternative method of migrating instances, hence, process
  instance migration cannot be automated with the current design.
  
  SOLUTION:
  
  Here is an example on how to use the command.
  
  wsadmin -conntype SOAP -port 8880 -host
  ProcessCenterServer01.mycompany.com
  -user admin_ID -password administrator_password -lang jython
  
  wsadmin>AdminTask.BPMMigrateInstances(?[-containerAcronym HSS
  -sourceContainerSnapshotName "v1" -targetContainerSnapshotName
  "v2"]?)
  

Problem conclusion

• PROBLEM CONCLUSION
  A fix is available for IBM BPM v8.0.1.1 that introduces an
  alternative method to initiate process instance migration using
  the WebSphere Application Server Wsadmin tool.
