Hi André, the question is - do you actually care about the values of these metadata fields? If not, you can just take them with you to the other repository unchanged. You can use AIP to transfer the whole object along with the handle. You may want to take a look at the "submission mode" when restoring and using the "-o ignoreHandle=false" option: https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSDOC18/AIP+Backup+and+Restore#AIPBackupandRestore-Thedifferencebetween%22Submit%22and%22Restore%2FReplace%22modes The question then is what happens if you're copying the item over second time (i.e. if it already exists in the target repository from a previous import).
