IBM® WebSphere® Business Integration (WBI) Monitor™ v4.2.4 Fix Pack1 HotFix -
Readme File
===============================================================================
New Updates:
- Monitoring IBM WebSphere
InterChange Server (WICS) Collaborations: WBI Monitor integrates now
with the WebSphere InterChange Server (WICS) 4.2.2.2 Fixpack. This
integration enables monitoring the WICS collaborations or collaboration
groups. Refer to the WBI Monitor User Guide - Chapter 7:
Monitoring WebSphere InterChange Server (WICS) Collaborations for
details about this new update.
- Support for Secured Socket
Layer (SSL) Protocols: WBI Monitor can now be installed and deployed
on a virtual host where a Secured
Sockets Layer (SSL) is applied. In this case the “https” protocol should
be used, instead
of “http”, for typing the Monitor Web address.
- Support for Clusters
Deployment: WBI Monitor supports now clustering deployment using the
WebSphere Deployment Manager, as one of the major features of the IBM
WebSphere Application Server v5.x. Refer to the WBI Monitor
Deployment Guide for details about this new update.
- Support for Multiple
Database TableSpaces Creation (Physical Database Design): WBI Monitor
now allows controlling the distribution of the Monitor and the EventQueue
Database tables and indices into a number of TableSpaces (up to 22
TableSpaces); 19 of which are created in the Monitor Database, and the
remaining three are created in the EventQueue Database. The database tables and
indices are grouped and categorized; such that each category can be assigned
to a separate TableSpace. Refer to the WBI Monitor Deployment
Guide for details about this new update.
- Support for Multiple Event
Processors (Multi Threading): WBI Monitor now allows initiating up to
20 event processors (as multiple threads) to process the incoming events;
such that each processor is responsible for processing a number of events
that is equal to the Event Count number. This leads to a significant
increase in the event processing performance, especially
for large generated events numbers. Refer to the WBI Monitor
Administration Guide - System Properties Page section for details
about this new update.
- Reporting Against
Ready
State: WBI
Monitor Business Dashboard reports can now display the process instances
that a selected user is responsible for, when any of their
activities happen to be ready in the queues.
- The default state of all WBI
Monitor Services is now "stopped". The user must start the required services
after importing the organization xml files to start processing the events and
to avoid loosing any data.
Fixed Bugs:
-
APAR JR18605: Fixed the bug in the System Properties Page of
the Monitor Admin Utility that caused using the user’s
Credential as the user’s Password and vice versa, which in turns caused that
the Process Instance Notifications was not worked properly.
-
APAR JR18666: Fixed the bug that
takes place when a new user is added through the security page of the admin
utility, and the group permissions of MQWF admin actions for this user are
not inherited. The administrator now is
allowed to set grant or deny permission for users
added manually for admin actions permissions.
-
APAR JR18956: Fixed the Events Timestamp Duplication problem: In case of using
Oracle database, the problem that existed due to the duplication of
events time stamp has been solved to handle these events properly.
-
The DB2 Access in Monitor Event Queues
has been enhanced.
-
The cleanup process for EventQueue
redundant container data has been optimized.
-
Fixed the bug that caused
a Business Measure value not to be updated, if the value was blank.
-
Fixed the bug that
takes place when
applying a filter while displaying a range of instances that is greater
than 10 instances, and the filter query gives result of a number of instances less than 10.
-
Fixed the bug that caused exporting
the Business Dashboard reports that contain a number of new items created one
day earlier than the actual process instances date.
-
Fixed the problem
that occurred when large data segments are used in Oracle database. This
took place when the Process data associated with an event was larger than
1 K, and caused the ArrayOutofBound error.
-
When an activity instance is
completed, the name of the user who completed the activity instance is now
displayed in the Assigned Employee column of the Activity Instance
table, instead of displaying a blank string.
-
Fixed the bug that caused displaying
improper year in the Korean calendar.
-
Fixed the problem of using multiple
event processors (Multi-Threading) when using DB2.
