Generating an MDP BE system by Components and Text Search

Use this procedure to generate metadata files for MDP Market and Customer components, and in Text Search. You should generate metadata files for an MDP BE system component to make them searchable in MDP client.

Before you start, install the source files to M3 BE installation to be able to generate an MDP BE System.
