Abstract:  Excessive processing time occurs when Business Objects (BOs) with large number of attributes in WebSphere Interchange Server applications are mapped and migrated to WebSphere Proce

Description/symptom of problem:  
JR27337 resolves the following problem:

ERROR DESCRIPTION:                                              
Customer has migrated maps from WICS to WPS and the performance 
is very bad.  It is much slower than it was in WICS enviroment. 

LOCAL FIX:

PROBLEM SUMMARY

USERS AFFECTED:
WebSphere Interchange Server users who are
migrating maps, which contain custom
transformation rule to  WebSphere Process
Server v6.0.2.2

PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:
Excessive processing time occurs when
Business Objects (BOs) with large
number of attributes in WebSphere
Interchange Server applications are
mapped and migrated to WebSphere
Process Server .

RECOMMENDATION:
None

The code converting WebSphere Process Server Service Data
Objects (SDOs) to and from WebSphere InterChange Server BOs
was inefficiently coded. The more attributes in the BOs
contained in the migrated application maps, the worse the
problem was.

PROBLEM CONCLUSION:                                             
The problem was improved by the recoding of some of the         
methods handling the data structure conversions. In this        
solution the caching mechanism is used in the runtime code.     


Directions to apply fix:  
Before applying the iFix ensure that WebSphere Process Server 6.0.2 is installed on the system.
Also download and follow Update Installer installation instructions.  The Update Installer can be downloaded from the following link:
http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=180&uid=swg21205991

1) Copy the pak file to the directory maintenance in the UpdateInstaller directory

2) Shutdown WebSphere Process Server. It is important that you perform a controlled and complete shutdown of the server to ensure that all transactions have completed, before installing the fix.

3) Run the UpdateInstaller and follow the prompts.

4) Restart WebSphere

Directions to remove fix:  
NOTE:  FIXES MUST BE REMOVED IN THE REVERSE ORDER IN WHICH THEY WERE APPLIED.  DO NOT REMOVE A FIX UNLESS  ALL FIXES APPLIED AFTER IT HAVE FIRST BEEN REMOVED.  YOU MAY REAPPLY ANY REMOVED FIX.

Example:  If your system has fix1, fix2, and fix3 applied in that order and fix2 is to be removed, fix3 must be removed first, then fix2 may be removed

1) Shutdown WebSphere. It is important that you perform a controlled and complete shutdown of the server to ensure that all transactions have completed, before installing the fix.

2) Follow the Fix instructions that are packaged with the Fix Installer on how to uninstall and reinstall the Fix.

3) Restart WebSphere

Directions to re-apply fix:  
1) Shutdown WebSphere. It is important that you perform a controlled and complete shutdown of the server to ensure that all transactions have completed, before installing the fix.

2) Run the UpdateInstaller and follow the instructions. The Update Installer can be downloaded from the following link:
http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=180&uid=swg21205991
