adding items from zip file: dspace import -a -e eperson -c collection -s sourcedir -z filename.zip -m mapfile e.g. [dspace]/bin/dspace import -a -e [email protected] -c 123456789/55 -s /tmp -z filename.zip -m mapfile You don't need to unzip the import file first - the importer can do that for you. > Also, is there options that can be used with the "dsrun" to export and import > only the metadata but not bitstreams for a collection? I have tried using the > "Export Metadata" option on the first server and and then the "Import > Metadata" option on the second instance but that keeps failing with an > "unknown error". Could you send a message with the complete output the command gives, and we'll see if we can help work out the error.
