Error description
When you use numerous timer events in your business processes, you might see lock contentions in the database on LSW_EM_TASK_KEYWORDS table and might notice that event manager queries are running slowly.
Local fix
Problem summary
When you create timer tasks, event records are inserted into the LSW_EM_TASK_KEYWORDS table. Some of the event records are distinct; others have the same value for a set of events, but there is one value that is inserted for every timer event: bpd.group.BPDIntermediateTimerEvent. These event records can take up to a third of the total records of the table, which can lead to contention during insert and delete operations.
Problem conclusion
A fix is available for IBM BPM V8.5.5.0 that prevents the bpd.group.BPDIntermediateTimerEvent keyword from being created. On Fix Central (http://www.ibm.com/support/fixcentral), search for JR52545: 1. Select IBM Business Process Manager with your edition from the product selector, the installed version to the fix pack level, and your platform, and then click Continue. 2. Select APAR or SPR, enter JR52545, and click Continue. When you download fix packages, ensure that you also download the readme file for each fix. Review each readme file for additional installation instructions and information about the fix.
