Diwakar, You are looking for "sword.restore-mode.enable", turn that on and Sword/Packager won't mint a new handle when a deposited item already has a handle. That option was made available in DSpace 1.7.2.
However, there is a negative effect. If anyone attempts to inject a package through sword that does not contain a handle it will fail. I've patched this problem on DSpace trunk, but it won't show up in a release until 1.8. This patch makes it such that if that parameter is turned on SWORD will use the handle if one is found, otherwise it will mint a new handle. Here's the bug report & patch: https://jira.duraspace.org/browse/DS-953 Scott-- P.S. I'm moving this to DSpace-devel because that's the proper place for this type of question.
