Back up your existing Lawson Portal installation

As a best practice, make a backup of your existing Lawson Portal before you install the new version. This section defines the files that should be backed up.

Note: If in the future, you decide you want to restore from backup, you must have performed this procedure.
  1. In $LAWDIR/persistdata/lawson, back up the /portal directory.
  2. In $LAWDIR/system, back up the GlobalPerms file.
  3. In $WEBDIR/lawson, back up the /portal directory.
  4. If you need to restore from a backup, follow instructions in Restoring a Previous CU.
