You'll have to track which items got which handles, and make sure the mapfile and the item folders do the right thing. Once you have it set up, though, it should be a fairly straightforward and automatable process. I recommend exporting the collection from DSpace (I assume it's in there already?) so that you can see what individual item folders should look like. You don't have to reimport that collection dump; it's purely for your information.
