- Subject changed from include updateSystemMetadataFields() method for IdentifierManager to Handle "update" replication requests that do not necessarily update the docid (access control changes)

#2 Updated by Ben Leinfelder over 13 years ago
Metacat triggers a 'force replication' action when we setAccess on the auto-generated sysmeta file - this does not increment the id. When the target Metacat attempts to handle this replication request, an attempt is made to insert the sysmeta doc again with the same id and then throws a PK constraint error.
We should either handle the access control change (to sync it with the originating server) or just ignore this forced replication 'update'.

I added an updateMapping() method to the IdentifierManager class that is now used when we encounter a forced replication update request. This prevents the systemMetadata unique key constraint from being violated when the doc is replicated (again) after the setAccess call.
