Hi Osama,

This is how it works for us (w/ five different prefixes)

"server_admins" = (
"300:0.NA/10138 <http://0.NA/10138>"
"300:0.NA/1975 <http://0.NA/1975>"
"300:0.NA/10224 <http://0.NA/10224>"
"300:0.NA/10250 <http://0.NA/10250>"
"300:0.NA/10227 <http://0.NA/10227>"
)

"replication_admins" = (
"300:0.NA/10138 <http://0.NA/10138>"
"300:0.NA/1975 <http://0.NA/1975>"
"300:0.NA/10224 <http://0.NA/10224>"
"300:0.NA/10250 <http://0.NA/10250>"
"300:0.NA/10227 <http://0.NA/10227>"
)

"max_session_time" = "86400000"
"this_server_id" = "1"
"max_auth_time" = "60000"
"backup_admins" = (
"300:0.NA/10138 <http://0.NA/10138>"
"300:0.NA/1975 <http://0.NA/1975>"
"300:0.NA/10224 <http://0.NA/10224>"
"300:0.NA/10250 <http://0.NA/10250>"
"300:0.NA/10227 <http://0.NA/10227>"
)

Also in dspace.cfg add a (undocumented) configuration key-value pair

handle.plugin.checknameauthority = false

and keep the handle.prefix value as the prefix you want to issue for new items.

    Hi all,

    We are using DSpace 1.6.2 and trying to retain Handle resolving on
    exiting items after merging two DSpace instances into on
    repository. I have already got CNRI to update all the desired
    prefixes using the same sitebndl.zip package. Also updated the
    handle config.dct as follow:

      ......
    "server_admins" = (
    "300:0.NA/1885 <http://0.NA/1885>"
    )

    "replication_admins" = (
    "300:0.NA/1885 <http://0.NA/1885>"
    )

    "max_session_time" = "86400000"
    "this_server_id" = "1"
    "max_auth_time" = "60000"
    "backup_admins" = (
    "300:0.NA/1885 <http://0.NA/1885>"
    )

    Now where do I include the second prefix number? do I also need to
    include it in the dspace.cfg?


    Furthermore, while looking at Dsapce 1.6.2 handle plug-in
    implementation, I found this comment along this code:

     public boolean haveNA(byte[] theHandle) throws HandleException
        {
        ......

    /// This parameter allows the dspace handle server to be capable
    of having multiple
    // name authorities assigned to it. So long as the handle table
    the alternative prefixes
    // defined the dspace will answer for those handles prefixes. This
    is not ideal and only
    // works if the dspace instances assumes control over all the
    items in a prefix, but it
    // does allow the admin to merge together two previously separate
    dspace instances each
    // with their own prefixes and have the one instance handle both
    prefixes. In this case
    // all new handle would be given a unified prefix but all old
    handles would still be
    // resolvable./
    .....

    Can anyone shed any light on this feature?

    Any advice appreciated.

    Thanks,
    Osama Alkadi
