Stuart Lewis commented on DS-287:
---------------------------------
I went through the difficult process of trying to get the dspace_migrate script
to work yesterday in DSpace 1.5.1, when I finally found a discussion via Google
about the problems others have had with the script and the changes that have
been made to ItemExport.java in DSpace release 1.5.2, specifically the
"Migrate" option. I ended up downloading the 1.5.2 version of ItemExport.java
and it worked great. I just have one suggestion: whenever we migrate Items
from one DSpace instance to another, we *always* want to retain the handles for
those records because we don't want to have more than one handle for the same
record. We do have unusual circumstances having to do with
security/authorization with limited documents and so we have some DSpace
instances that have handle servers running on them and some instances that
don't. This may be a unique situation and this may not make sense to others,
however my suggestion is that an option be added to ItemExport.java in a future
release that would allow for a command line "option" to retain handles, but
still get rid of metadata that will be duplicated on import into another
instance.
Thanks,
Sue
