Hello Scott, you should be able to harvest metadata only from any Data Provider who supports OAI-PMH. For anything else the Data Provider has to support OAI-ORE. With regards to ArchivesSpace there are other integration possibilities: https://archivesspace.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/ADC/pages/17137746/Integrations#Integrations-archivesspace-archivematica-dspace_workflow_integration
With harvester.acceptedHandleServer (default(hdl.handle.net) "A harvest process will attempt to scan the metadata of the incoming items (identifier.uri field, to be exact) to see if it looks like a handle. If so, it matches the pattern against the values of this parameter. If there is a match the new item is assigned the handle from the metadata value instead of minting a new one. Default value: hdl.handle.net ." So in your case a new handle will be minted. You may just try it out in a test instance harvesting from http://demo.dspace.org/oai 1.8 supports OAI Harvesting but has long reached its end of life, so you should definitely upgrade. Hope this helps Claudia Jürgen Am 04.09.2017 um 18:13 schrieb Scott Renton: Hi folks I've had a look at the OAI harvesting as client documentation, and it looks perfectly viable to harvest another DSpace. I have a requirement to build a system which harvests from different repositories (in this case ArchivesSpace and AtoM), and I would like to take some identifier data (not getting deep into the structure) from these systems in DC and push the information into a DSpace collection. Would that be viable, or does it need to be another DSpace collection? I wondered about the "rejectedHandlePrefix"- these things will not have DSpace-style handles, so will they fail at that hurdle? Also, I know that I will either need a fresh DSpace or to upgrade a 1.8 version instance (to be fair, we need to do that anyway). I take I need to get to version 5 for this functionality?
