Installing the interim fix

There are two ways to install IBM WebSphere Business Modeler 6.1.1 interim fixes:

Download the required files to a local repository and use the IBM Installation Manager Update Packages wizard to install the files from the repository.
Use the IBM Installation Manager Update Packages wizard to download and install the required files automatically from an IBM download site.

To complete the installation of the IBM WebSphere Business Modeler interim fix

1. Go to Start > All Programs > IBM Installation Manager > IBM Installation Manager.

The IBM Installation Manager opens.

2. Click Update.

The Update Packages wizard starts.

3. Select the WebSphere Business Modeler package.

4. Click Next.

Installation Manager searches for updates in its repositories and the predefined update sites for WebSphere Business Modeler. If you do not have the files for the interim fix in a local repository, Installation Manager will download the required files.

5. On the Updates page, select Version 6.1.1.004.

6. Click Next.

The License page opens, displaying the list of licenses for the updates you selected.

7. Click each item to review the license agreement text.

8. If you agree to the terms of the license agreements, click I accept the terms of the license agreements.

The Update Packages wizard closes. You have successfully installed the interim fix.

12. Close IBM Installation Manager.

Note: Before using WebSphere Business Modeler in a language other than English, you must first install the language you want to use. The interim fixes for WebSphere Business Modeler 6.1 include the national language support files that are required for installing additional languages.

If you are using WebSphere Business Modeler 6.1 without any interim fixes installed, you need to install an interim fix before you can install additional languages. After installing the interim fix, run the Modify Packages wizard from the IBM Installation Manager start page and select the languages to install.

If you are already using WebSphere Business Modeler 6.1.1, you can run the Modify Packages wizard to install additional languages either before or after applying any fixes.

Product notes

These product notes include the following topics:

Exporting certain business items as data fields
Changes to modeling in FileNet Business Process Manager mode
Re-importing business services imported from WSDL after applying interim fix 2

Exporting certain business items as data fields

By default, the FileNet Business Process Manager export now exports business items that have a single basic-type attribute as data fields. The export continues to export business items that have

More than one attribute, or
Complex-type (business items) attributes as XML data fields.

You can disable this option by removing the checkmark from the Transform business items with single basic attributes into data fields checkbox on the export options page. If you disable this option, the export exports all business items, including business items with single basic-type attributes, as XML data fields.

For example, let’s say that there is a process that contains a Customer business item that has one attribute called Id and the attribute is an Integer. If you export the process with the option enabled and then open the resulting XPDL in FileNet Process Designer, there will be a Customer data field. If you export the process with the option disabled, there will be a Customer XML data field instead.

With the option enabled, the export removes the attribute and sets the data field to the type of the business item attribute. In the XPDL, the data field looks like this:

</DataType>

</DataField>

With the option disabled, the export creates a definition that refers to the XML schema. In the XPDL, the XML data field looks like this:

</DataType>

<fn:Field ElementName="Customer" SchemaName="Schema_name"/>

</DataField>

Note that enabling or disabling this option does not affect Businessitems.xsd. The schema contains the same definition for the data field. The difference is that with the option enabled, the XPDL does not reference the schema.

Changes to modeling in FileNet Business Process Manager mode

Previously, in the FileNet Business Process Manager mode, you modeled data flow separately from the control flow. In other words, to pass data from one task to another, you had to

1. Link the first task to a repository to output the data, and then

2. Link the repository to the second task to input data.

After applying the interim fix 1, you can attach business items that have a single basic-type attribute to a control flow. You no longer need to pass the business item from a task to a repository to another task.

If the business item has more than one attribute or an attribute that is of a complex type (another business item), you must continue to use a repository to pass it from one task to another.

Re-importing business services imported from WSDL after applying interim fix 2

This interim fix resolved a problem that had occurred when performing the IBM WebSphere Integration Developer export on a model containing business services imported from WSDL.

If you are encountering this problem before applying this interim fix

1. Apply the interim fix.

2. Re-import the business service into IBM WebSphere Business Modeler.

3. Reference the newly imported business service in a process model.

Subsequent export of the model to WebSphere Integration Developer will succeed without error.
