A company is in the process of migrating a cluster from WebSphere Process Server V6.0.2 to V6.1. Before all of the V6.0.2 cluster members have been migrated, an administrator attempts to deploy a BPEL application to this mixed cluster, but the deployment fails. What is causing the failure and which action should the administrator take?

  1. Some of the WebSphere Process Server cluster members were not started. Ensure all cluster members are started.

  2. The Business Process Container on all cluster members was not started. Start all Business Process Containers first.

  3. BPEL applications cannot be deployed to a mixed version WebSphere Process Server cluster. Migrate the V6.0.2 cluster members first.

  4. The administrator did not authenticate as a user with the necessary authority. Log in as a user in the Administrator role and re-install the application.

C Correct answer
Explanation

Mixed-version clusters in WebSphere Process Server do not support BPEL application deployment. The deployment fails because the cluster members are running different versions (V6.0.2 and V6.1), which creates an inconsistent runtime environment. The administrator must complete migrating all cluster members to V6.1 before attempting to deploy BPEL applications. Starting cluster members or authentication issues are not the root cause here.
