The lost (collaxa) BPEL-Tutorials: 106.ParallelFlows

This tutorials shows, how to use the parallel flow with Oracle's BPEL PM.
The process looks like this:

First you have to set up everything (see this posting) and change these property files:

/opt/oracle/product/10.1.3.1/OracleAS_1/bpel/samples/tutorials/106.ParallelFlows/build.properties
/opt/oracle/product/10.1.3.1/OracleAS_1/bpel/samples/utils/AsyncLoanService/UnitedLoan/build.properties
/opt/oracle/product/10.1.3.1/OracleAS_1/bpel/samples/utils/AsyncLoanService/AmericanLoan/build.properties

(at least username, passwort and port)
Then use the following commands to deploy everything:

/opt/oracle/product/10.1.3.1/OracleAS_1/bpel/bin/devprompt.sh

bash-3.00$ /opt/oracle/product/10.1.3.1/OracleAS_1/ant/bin/ant
...
BUILD SUCCESSFUL
Total time: 4 seconds

To see the example running, go to the BPELConsole and open the FlowSample process and initiate it with the following XML Source:

<soap:Envelope xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
<soap:Header/>
<soap:Body xmlns:ns1="http://www.autoloan.com/ns/autoloan">
<loanApplication xmlns="http://www.autoloan.com/ns/autoloan">
<SSN>987654321</SSN>
<email>ganga.sah@oracle.com</email>
<customerName>Ganga Sah</customerName>
<loanAmount>25000.00</loanAmount>
<carModel>Honda Acura</carModel>
<carYear>2004</carYear>
<creditRating>750</creditRating>
</loanApplication>
</soap:Body>
</soap:Envelope>

Then the audit trails will show the following:

You can see at the timestamps, that both sequences are really running in parallel. But note that this does not already happen:
