As I've said, I'm a naive DSpace user (am a former database developer,
turned lawyer).  My objective is to use DSpace to manage legal
pleadings.  Gradually, I'm beginning to understand DSpace implementation,
but am still fairly blindly following documentation, aided by examples
gleaned from existing code.  From comments in [dspace]/config/dspace.cfg, I
assumed I needed to set indices, etc. for Discovery. So, for example, the
following comments document some modifications to the .cfg file:

# Added, for Discovery interface:
# webui.browse.index.6 = osefileno:metadata:dc.identifier.other:text:asc
# webui.itemlist.sort-option.5 = osefileno:dc.identifier.other:osefileno
# search.index.14 = osefileno:dc.identifier.other

These changes appear to have been sufficient to add dc.identifier.other
(used for an internal case file identifier) to the Mirage Discovery
sidebar. Similar changes added one other dc element.

In any case, my original question remains:  when, precisely, must I modify
[dspace]/config/spring/api/discovery.xml?  Unfortunately, because I'm not a
Java/web/etc programmer, the Discovery documentation remains somewhat
opaque to me.

(In that context, I've found comments from you and other tech list
contributors very helpful. Thanks to all!)
