We are looking into the options of upgrading On Premise or migrating to the cloud. We have Financials, Procurement and Supply Chain. Infor says they are having a difficult time finding 3 references for us that upgraded On Premise because all of there clients are migrating to the cloud. Although when I asked for 3 references with the cloud migration I can only get 2. The Network Administrator is freaking about losing control of the servers, database, and security not to mention the latency we wil...

Anyone successfully excluded certain services from being synchronized in a Landmark Federation/Synchronization Trying to excluded a service (Candidate Self-Service) service, IDs and other metadata from that service currently in Landmark from being synchronized into S3. I excluded the service inside of lsservice.properties on LMK (and recycled LSF and LMK) but unfortunately, the Candidate Self-Service service, IDs and other metadata was synchronized. This is LSF 10.0.8 (AIX) with LMK 10.1.1 (...

Looking for working advice for installing SSL certificates for MSCM and LBI websites. Example: I want https://r:port>/mscm  Windows, no IIS, no HTTP/IHS, just Websphere 8.5.5 with appserver and node. Snoop smoketests work fine (with cert errors of course). Yes, DSSO is installed and it's working fine without any cert errors back to LSF.  What are your steps to install a CA Cert and Intermediate Cert into the specific places into MSCM/LBI Websphere security I.E. SSL certificate and key ...

Is there a way to see what distribution groups may be associated with job(s) via a report or dump per user or  job name   I know I can use jobprmprt to show parameters but I'd like to know if any of the jobs are automatically distributed.   I hope that is clear.   Thanks for your help.

We're looking for guidance, or 'best practices', for applying OS patches to our Windows servers that host Lawson.  The main concern is that some OS patches require a reboot. Can you point us to any documents  or blogs on the topic Do you bring Lawson down before applying OS patches  What do you do about running jobs Do you have scripts that bring Lawson down Do you apply OS patches on a monthly (since Microsoft releases them monthly) Thank you!

I am a bit of a newbie to Lawson. We are looking to upgrade from v9 to v10 this year. We have heard that SharePoint is required to run the new Mingl.e portal, but if we do not plan to use Mingl.e and use SmartOffice instead do we still need to install SharePoint Will it still be required for the reporting dashboard   Thanks for any help you can give.

Would someone know what would be the best way to have programmers be notified when a job fails I have a program ED501 scheduled in recdef. This program goes into the recovery queue and all the jobs go into waiting and we don't know until the next day when orders did not come in.

Hi All, We are heavy users of jobdump/jobload at the command line, particularly for jobs that require path configuration (like PR530).  Sometimes we would like to be able to delete the batch job setup for a user from the command line in a similar way so we can clean up the job tables for reporting purposes.  Is there some way to do this Example - delete all jobs (or a specific job) for a terminated user.   Thanks!  Kelly

We are currently on LSF 10.0.5 and I want to get us up to 10.0.7 this spring/summer so that we can move to SQL 2014.  I see that I am going to have to upgrade my java from jdk6 to jdk7 and it looks like some of the newest Landmark pieces would like us to be on WebSphere 8.5.5.     I have never upgraded WebSphere before - I have only done new installs and fixpacks.  Does anybody know the best way to upgrade WebSphere   thanks   Jon

Hello, I was wondering if anyone else have written their own scripts, or have developed a method of taking Lawson's custom EM and fax files and integrating them in to their own network for sending email or faxes. ie. $Lawdir\\Email\* I am just curious to what other companies are doing in order to parse these files and then email/fax them out to clients / users / etc. The Lawson fax integrator is out of the question. Thanks for any advice you can give us.

How do I accomplish this   I do see run as user in RM but where would I specify the userid    Eg, If I want my Admin ID to run as Hruser .

Anyone know the parm structure for this CL on the iSeries, V8.1   Thanks.

Our IS Security team is enforcing us to update Java across our entire corporation. One of the servers we need to do is our LSF server, which is running version 10.0.5.0 on Java 1.6.0_43. I logged a case with Infor Support and they simply told me 'install Java then point the environment to it.' When I asked for the instructions, they told me to talk to their consulting services. We don't want to pursue consulting services as we'd rather do it ourselves. I did some playing around with our test sys...

We did an upgrade from v9 to v10. They are on separate servers but on Windows 2008. Now after we brought users to v10, NT ID's of users on v9 and v10 do not match therefore creating mixup of users in old records. So when we run HR105 on v10, we see different users on a report, that's because NT id of users on v9 are not the same as on v10. Our senior guy is on vacation and I'm not sure how to solve this issue. Our users are on ADFS and I tried to change some of users NT ID's using LDAP browser...

Due to  OS issue we need to migrate our Lawson environment to a brand new node. The new node will have same IP, hostname and same OS version. We are running Lawson on AIX 6.1, WebSphere 7 and Oracle 11g. All are on same AIX box. Our host team will copy everything over from current node to the new node. Anyone did such migration before Were anything surprises we need to watch out

We recently conducted a DR test where we failed over to alternate hardware (Windows) and then moved back to the original servers. When we moved back to the original hardware, we are seeing that the RQC Approval link was missing. When you run fiddler on the opening Mingle (V10) we see that the call is trying to access the server that we cut over to during DR test.  We have stopped/started all app servers and brought them back up, validated nothing changed in the host files, flushed DNS  but it se...

I am looking for assistance (guidance) with an SSL certificate renewal procedures. Our SSL cert for our Lawson portal is due to expire on 10/30/2015. We have never done a SSL cert renewal on Websphere before (total noobies). Does anyone have step-by-step directions on how to do this Our environment is one application server(Websphere, portal, etc.) with one database server. Any assistance you can provide would be greatly appreciated. Tracy

We have many employees who don't have PCs available to connect directly to our network.  We have kiosks available for them, but they cannot login to Lawson when their password is expired.  The LDAP Bind doesn't account for the extra calls to handle expired AD passwords.  Is there an app or script that would allow them to authenticate to the network and allow them to reset their password before connecting to Lawson  How have others addressed this issue  We have about 1,500 employees that fall i...

Hi all, Since being live on V10 with Mingle/SharePoint, we've had 4 different occasions where the SharePoint/Mingle server has locked up and become inaccessible.  Very frustrating from a technical standpoint (and user standpoint!), for sure! Two things: 1. Has anyone else experienced this (and what have you done to resolve) 2. Do folks out there typically schedule regular restarts of the SharePoint server to avoid this Note:  We've opened tickets with Infor and, as a result, have added to...

We are preparing for our 803 to LSF9 migration and will need to engineer a new solution to replace our Processflow Professional flows that automatically create and remove RD30 records. Currently all our users defined in RD30 are there because they need access to ESS/MSS - except for one portal / lid user who I have a second id set up for so I can manage her portal security rights seperately from the rights inherently granted to ESS/MSS users. The balance of the application users utilize LID and ...

I'm sure there is a command for this, but I can't find it in the Infor KB - only article out there is a bazillion years old and is no longer relevant. We moved some custom changes into our PROD system this morning, and the compiler balked at a ws literal length.  We didn't get the error in our dev system. We double-checked to make certain all the files were exactly the same, and they are, but we could not get the darn things to compile.  So we changed the length, and it compiled without error. ...

Hope someone can help me here. I have been assigned to upgrade MSCM to the latest so I am trying to understand the server requirements. We are on 2003 so we need to upgrade to 2008. The server team is asking me for specs but Lawson doesn't have any specs. I don't know much about servers and it's not my area of expertise. When the server team builds a server, would I need to re-install all the components including websphere, DSSO, that are already installed, Internet Explorer etc on the old one ...
