Resolving appmetadiff Differences
This section describes typical differences or discrepancies that may be reported in the appmetadiff report, and explains how to resolve them. The appmetadiff report must report no differences for the copying of a product line to be successful and contain the expected functionality.
If you have not made any customizations to the application, you should not have any differences reported. If differences are reported, something outside of the application maintenance processes has occurred.
To resolve some differences reported by appmetadiff, you may need to use the metadump and metaload utilities. However, Infor Lawson Core Technology 10.0.x does not allow security access automatically to these utilities. You have the option of turning Lawson Security off (lsconfig –c passwd OFF) or creating a security class providing access to the metadump and metaload utilities.
For information on create security access, see Setting Up Access to the metadump and metaload Utilities
For general information on the metadump and metaload utilities, see the System Utilities Reference Guide.
