    PROBLEM SUMMARY
    The policy file generated by the BPMCheckOrphanToken command
    contains nested step elements when there are timer events or
    message events attached to the activity.
    
    Here is a sample of nested steps in a policy file:
    
    <process bpdId="25.5ae984b9-56b0-4da6-ace1-c5f6b907b36f"
    name="Create 4506-T Task">
      <step id="bpdid:0efe9500a69668ef:229b4d9f:14017f78a04:-1d2"
    name="Create 4506-T Task">
        <step
    id="bpdid:25d66ea3e3233186:-1d5c9030:141938e1dfa:-7f76"
    name="Post Task Creation Timer">
          <delete suspendProcess="false"/>
        </step>
      </step>
    </process>
    

Problem conclusion

  • The fix is available for IBM BPM V8.5.6.0 that eliminates the
    nested step elements to avoid the failure during instance
    migration.
