Comparing Integration Server Packages and Elements
Designer provides you with the ability to compare packages and elements in Integration Server. The compare tool is useful to compare packages and elements on the same server or on different servers, and to track changes to a package or element during the development process. For example, you can use the compare tool to identify the differences between the development, staging, and production versions of a package or element. You can use the tool to compare:
Packages
Folders
Flow Services
Integration Server Document Types
The differences between the items that you compare are presented in a compare editor along with annotations to indicate the changes.
You can also use the compare tool to compare two revisions of an element in a local service development project. For information, see
Comparing Revisions of an Element.
The ability to compare packages and elements is available only with Integration Server 9.9 and later.
Note: To compare packages and folders, the Integration Server on which they are located must have the pub.assets:getChecksums service in the WmPublic package. For additional details on the pub.assets:getChecksums service, see webMethods Integration Server Built-In Services Reference.
