Hi Jan, The easiest way is to just do an upgrade from 5.x -> 7.x instead of migrating data.
https://wiki.lyrasis.org/display/DSDOC7x/Upgrading+DSpace Since you are moving to a new machine, there may be a few extra steps here prior to the upgrade that I'd recommend: * Install Postgres on the new machine...make sure it is a version supported for DSpace 7.x * Migrate your old Postgres database over to the new Postgres. Use the Postgres tool pg_dump to migrate the data, see https://www.postgresql.org/docs/11/backup-dump.html * Copy your old DSpace installation folder (or at least the "assetstore" where the files are stored) from the old machine to the new machine. * Perform the upgrade as documented. If you'd rather do a data migration, your best option here would likely be to go with the DSpace AIP Backup and Restore: https://wiki.lyrasis.org/display/DSDOC7x/AIP+Backup+and+Restore Keep in mind though that there is some data (mainly in-progress submissions) which cannot be restored via this process. Good luck & let us know on this list if you have more questions.

May I ask what is a recommended approach to keep the handle numbers?
