Ashim, It is not easy to tell you exactly what is going wrong without understanding your use case / needs here. Are you trying to migrate content from one place to another and *keep the same Handles*? If so, the process you listed should work, assuming you've properly exported all the AIPs (you should have a large number of Zip files which internally reference one another).
If you are instead trying to move content and assign *new Handles*, then you'd need to either use the Submission (-s) option or use the "-o ignoreHandle=true" flag with the Restore (-r) option. Overall, we'd need to understand *all the steps you are taking* to provide better advice. For example, if the export process did not result in a large number of Zip files (one per Community, Collection and Item), then your later import may not work properly as it cannot find all the expected objects to import.

When using Restore, DSpace will *always* attempt to preserve the handles that are listed in the AIPs. But, when using Submission (-s), DSpace ignores handles listed in the AIPs and assigns new ones. If you want/need to run this command using the Restore (-r) option, there's a way to tell it to assign a new Handle to all objects by specifying "-o ignoreHandle=true" on the command line. This difference in behavior (and various options to override defaults) is noted in the documentation here: https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSDOC6x/AIP+Backup+and+Restore#AIPBackupandRestore-Thedifferencebetween%22Submit%22and%22Restore/Replace%22modes Tim ________________________________ From: dspace-tech@googlegroups.com<mailto:dspace-tech@googlegroups.com> <dspace-tech@googlegroups.com<mailto:dspace-tech@googlegroups.com>> on behalf of Ashim Kapoor <ashim.kap...@nipfp.org.in<mailto:ashim.kap...@nipfp.org.in>> Sent: Thursday, September 26, 2019 12:26 AM To: Terry Brady <terry.br...@georgetown.edu<mailto:terry.br...@georgetown.edu>> Cc: DSpace Technical Support <dspace-tech@googlegroups.com<mailto:dspace-tech@googlegroups.com>> Subject: Re: [dspace-tech] Re: Unable to restore site wide AIP backup On Wed, 25 Sep 2019 at 22:32, Terry Brady <terry.br...@georgetown.edu<mailto:terry.br...@georgetown.edu>> wrote: I see that you used -i 123456789/0 on export and are using -i 1/0 on import. The exported site has handle 123456789 while the handle of the site where the import is happening is 1. That is why I did this. The error message " The object type of the METS manifest (COLLECTION) does not match up with the object type (SITE) of the DSpaceObject to be replaced! " may be caused by this discrepancy. Do you want to preserve the site/community/collection handles in your destination repository? Query : How can I ensure that I get the same ORIGINAL handle (ie. 1234567890 ) vs how can I get a new handle (ie 1 ) ? Is there a third way eg. where I can mention a different handle of the site ( different to the original (123456789)/ new handle (1) ) Terry On Tue, Sep 24, 2019 at 9:56 PM Ashim Kapoor <ashim.kap...@nipfp.org.in<mailto:ashim.kap...@nipfp.org.in>> wrote: Dear All, Can someone please help me with this ?
