I happen to be running a replacement import right now.  Here's the
command I use:

dsrun org.dspace.app.itemimport.ItemImport --replace
[EMAIL PROTECTED] --collection=1721.1/123 --source=archive1
--mapfile=archive1.map

archive1 is a directory containing another directory named something
like 0051.

archive1.map then contains a line with that subdirectory and the item
handle.

0051 1721.1/37278

If you're replacing several things, there could be several directories
under archive1 and then several lines in the map file.

I wasn't able to access Dorothea's website to look at her instructions.
