Hi Rainer,

     I think your suggestion is great. Please check if I have understood you 
correctly:
     1. Create the new process definition
     2. Specify the process instance you want migrated to new definition
     3. The tool checks to see if the completed nodes matches or is still valid 
for the new definition, if invalid it throws an error 
     4. If successful it changes the processinstance graph with the new process 
definition (4a. in your experience should it recreate the transactions and the 
delete the old process instance, or 4b. just update the process defintion 
foreign keys, is this possible with the data constraints? )
     
     If I have assumed correctly above, I have a few questions to keep things 
interesting though, lets assume I have a process definition as follows: A-B-C 
where A is the main process and B and C are subprocesses. Only B subprocess 
needs to be updated, should I:  

     a) migrate only affected process, i.e. B? 
     a) recreate the whole processes A,B and C?
     b) recreate the affected processes only i.e. A and B

     Sorry for too many questions. I plan to change some existing processes 
using jbpm and before I do that, at least I must have a plan just in case. It 
may not happen but I see this as potential risk.   You know how it can be funny 
in this business, its best to assume things could go wrong. I hope these 
questions will not add to your new years hangover ;)

Regards,

Elmo
