Issue while migrating instances in IBM BPM - Instances are not migrating

Problem :: We were facing issue in one of our Process App where we cannot migrate any instances from older version and also not getting any error in SystemOut logs. We have tried everything and finally raised PMR to IBM. PMR went on for few months and finally we got the problem.

Issue: This is happening if you are creating new instances of ProcessApp using REST-API. in IBM BPM Process Server environment, we should not have any instance in LSW_BPD_INSTANCE table with value TIP='T' as there are not TIP version in Process Server Environment.
Though if you are creating new instance using REST-API on Default snapshot that instance will have value TIP='T' in LSW_BPD_INSTACE table, which is defect.
When we migrate instances to one snapshot to another, IBM BPM ignore all the instances having TIP='T' and thus these instances are not getting migrated.

SOLUTION: there are two things we can do.
1.) Change value for all instances from 'T' to 'F' in TIP column of LSW_BPD_INSTACES. This will let us migrate all older instances which we were not able to migrate earlier.

2.) there is an I-Fix which we should install to fix this problem for future instances.
Below are the detail for Permanent fix using IFIX.

Second Page of custom saved search result reset back to previous saved search's column and filter - IBM BPM Portal

Problem
Whenever we try to execute a custom search or quick search first page of result comes as expected but as soon as we click on second or any other page from pagination menu custom search gets back to default or last clicked saved search.

Solution 
We raised this issue with IBM and they came back with an IFix to solve this issue.
apparently this issue is related to cookie in local browser. whenever we click on second or any other page, it get redirected to the saved search that is related in cookie and search filter, sorting and column get details from saved search in cookie. 
To solve this problem, JR49440 Needs to be installed.

Go to, IBM Fix Central and find JR49440 related to your current IBM BPM version.
