Create nested BAW internal groups when creating BAW internal groups from a process application deployment

Internal groups are also created implicitly during a process application deployment if the snapshot includes security groups that do not exist on the target system. But, if those internal groups have nested internal groups, those nested groups are not created also!


Additionally, would like to request these additional wrinkles be handled gracefully:


  1. The membership (nesting) of other groups to the BPM groups. The BPM groups can contain either/both BPM groups and LDAP groups

  2. The membership of users directly to the BPM groups

.. basically any relationship that would not be automatically reconstituted by doing a syncGroupMembershipForAllGroups (with -allmode "all") .. which is all non-security-provider groups/users. This would not include runtime artifacts like ad-hoc/temporary (group_type 2) groups.


This would be very helpful when deploying process apps on new BAW servers (which are connected to the same security providers) or when trying to migrate from BAW to CP4BA.


Note: Even if the new BAW servers or new CP4BA environment are connected to the same security providers and the origin, the LDAP configuration parameters would need to be identical/equivalent to ensure that the same population of LDAP groups and users is exposed in the new environment as is exposed in the origin.
