Hi,
I am copying a productline on my Development server. The PL I am copying from also resides on my DEV server, but was originally copied from our production server prior to my becoming sys admin.
I am at the point in my copy productline procedures where I run the pldbsetup and editda commands. I was surprised and concerned when the pldbsetup prompts contained information from my production database. I did some further searching and found multiple plda.cfg files in various productlines in %LAWDIR% on DEV that pointed to our production DB. I reviewed the copy PL instructions and don't see any instructions to delete those files or exclude them from the PL copy.
I'm not a DB expert by anymeans and while I feel very comfortable with most admin tasks, I am always concerned that I will delete or overwrite the production DB which would be problematic.
My question is this: Should the editda and the plda.cfg files be deleted prior to running pldbsetup? Did I miss a step in the instructions that would have directed me to delete the files that point to our Production DB? If I run the pldbsetup, will the existing plda.cfg and editda files get overwritten?
Thanks!

If you are creating a new prodline from an existing prodline, any standard lawson delivered files in the ToPL root folder can be deleted.
ie: editdafile, plda, MICRSOFT, ORACLE etc.
then you can run the editda, blddbdict, dbcreate etc.
