Hello, I couldn't find any Wiki pages myself, however, 'oai_source' is instance you are harvesting from, while 'oai_set_id' is the setSpec for the specific collection you are interested in. Incidentally, the OAI 'ListSets' verb will help you identify setSpec names for collections of interest.
I was able to ping remote instance as shown below. Notice the UPPER CASE 'S' flag --probably a typo in illustration shown when you run 'dspace harvest -h' dspace@phrlig001:/usr/local/dspace/bin$ ./dspace harvest -g -S http://opensaldru.uct.ac.za/oai/request -i hdl_11090_186 Starting harvest loop... running. dspace@phrlig001:/usr/local/dspace/bin$ Lighton Phiri http://lightonphiri.org On 30 May 2013 12:57, Nemiz, Elvi <[email protected]> wrote: > Dear All, > > I am receiving an error when running PING OAI from the command line "Error - > both the OAI server address and OAI set id must be specified".
