TIBCO BPM Enterprise (formerly TIBCO ActiveMatrix BPM)

Description

Environments that have an LDAP Container defined with a Query that returns a large number of resources may see the following error when attempting to view resources in the Organization Browser. This situation occurs when the number of Resources returned by the query is greater than 50000, which is the default limit that Openspace is able to display.

Issue/Introduction

The version of Openspace included with TIBCO BPM Enterprise version 4.3.1 does not support viewing LDAP Resources that return over 50000 results by default. This issue can be addressed by adding a JVM argument to the BPM Nodes configuration to increase this limit.

Environment

All

Resolution

The limit in the number of results displayed can be modified by adding a JVM argument to the BPM Nodes in the environment, referring to the  Updating the JVM Configuration for a Node using Administrator UI documentation.
  • Set the Property to "org.apache.cxf.stax.maxChildElements".
  • Set the Value to a number that is greater than the maximum number of resources that will be returned by the LDAP Container's query.
