Thanks for your response, Tim.

About setting the value of `dspace.entitity.type`: Isn't it correct to 
configure my own entity model? I created new types in 
`relationship-types.xml` and then run the script to `initialize-entities`.

I really used them for discovery/search and it seems to work perfectly (2+ 
months running).

Regards,
Santiago.
