Hi Gene, IIRC, the important question is whether the new machine will have the same domain name/IP as the old one. See <http://www.handle.net/support.html#notes>: "Moving your Handle Service and/or Changing a Handle Server's IP Address. If the IP address of your handle server changes, your handles won't resolve until you re-run the Simple Setup (instructions are in the install.txt file included with the software distribution) and send the resulting sitebndl.zip file to the Handle System Administrator at [email protected] so that the service information in your prefix can be updated. Be sure to identify the prefix to be updated in your email message." Anyway, you can have the 4321 handle defined in dspace on both the old and new server even before you do that change. The new server will work just fine, only handle URLs will continue to resolve to the old server until you send that updated sitebndl. Does that answer your question?
