[Dspace-tech] Batch metadata corrections question: does anyone know why the limit is set to just 20 items at a time?

2011-07-27 Thread Berry, Irene (CIV)
Hello,
We're experimenting with making batch corrections to metadata using the Import 
Metadata feature in the jsp.  We'd like to raise the limit on the number of 
items that may be changed at a time.

I can see the file: 
http://scm.dspace.org/svn/repo/dspace/tags/dspace-1.6.2/dspace-jspui/dspace-jspui-api/src/main/java/org/dspace/app/webui/servlet/MetadataImportServlet.java

Where it says this:
// Set the lmimt to the number of items that may be changed in one go, default 
to 20
limit = ConfigurationManager.getIntProperty("bulkedit.gui-item-limit", 20);
log.debug("Setting bulk edit limit to " + limit + " items");


…We’d like to up it from 20 to maybe 500 as an experiment -- but potentially 
much higher.  Does anyone know if that's a really bad idea?  We just don’t know 
what the consequence is of making this limit larger, but 20 seems way too low 
for a typical batch of changes.

Thanks,

Re: [Dspace-tech] Batch metadata corrections question: does anyone know why the limit is set to just 20 items at a time? AND: question about regular recompiling

2011-07-29 Thread Berry, Irene (CIV)
Thank you, Peter, Stuart, Andrea, Alex -
So it sounds like it comes down to how much RAM is available on our
server. 

We're going to try 1000, and see how it goes, as we are still on a
development server for just this kind of reason.  We are looking at
correcting a very large batch of records (retrospective ETDs) before we go
live, so this is kind of exceptional..but looking forward, I can see we'll
have to be correcting/recompiling regularly.  I'm still kind of new, so if
anyone has any advice/warnings about doing regular batch corrections as a
regular thing, I'd be glad to hear it.

How do you handle updates and recompiling? Quarterly?  After hours?
Thanks everyone,

[Dspace-tech] How often do you handle recompiling? Regularly? Quarterly? Monthly?

2011-08-11 Thread Berry, Irene (CIV)
Hello DSpace-tech folks,
We're preparing to go live soon, and I wanted to ask the group for advice on 
how to plan for regular recompiling/updates.  Do you do this task as a regular 
thing, after "hours"  at night? Monthly, or quarterly..?
(I'm the person who wrote a week or so back about raising the limit on batch 
record corrections so I'm thinking we'll have to recompile from time to time.)
thanks,

[Dspace-tech] what happens to handles, once an item is expunged?

2012-08-21 Thread Berry, Irene (CIV)
Hello – I have a question for the group --
We're trying to figure something out about what happens to handles, once an 
item is expunged.  Is that handle then gone forever from the pool of available 
handles, or does the handle server consider that number available for reuse?  
Could it cause conflicts, if the number is reused?
Thank you very much,
Irene Berry

[Dspace-tech] what happens to handles, once an item is expunged?

2012-08-23 Thread Berry, Irene (CIV)
I want to thank the group here at the tech list for the thoughts about what 
happens to a handle once it is expunged, especially  Susan Thonton, Tim Donahue 
and helix84. We still have some uncertainty around what actually happens with 
handles after a withdraw vs. an expunge, but my practice at this point is going 
to be to assume the numbers will not be reused, but not to try to manually 
reuse handles, anyway.  I welcome any further discussion.  Thanks again, 
everyone.

[Dspace-tech] archiving .tgz files as second bitstream: can DSpace support tar ball format?

2012-09-06 Thread Berry, Irene (CIV)
Hello Tech list,
The topic of "supplemental materials" seems to be on contributors' minds a lot 
right now.  I'm talking about additional material such as images, video and now 
computer code which people would like to include alongside the documents that 
need them. I have two questions for the group about adding additional bitstream 
material.

  1.  Computer code: Has anyone successfully added .tgz or gripped tar ball 
format for computer code?  I don't see that format on the table of supported 
formats, but I wondered if anyone has archived computer code successfully.  
That is the format that has been proposed to me.
  2.  Large image files: I find that the filesize limit of 512mB isn't going to 
let me do a single-item bitstream addition.  Is there a back-end way to enter 
an additional bitstream for an existing item?  I want to keep the original file 
(.pdf) and the supplemental material (.tiffs) together under one record if 
possible.

I'd love to know if there's a back-end way to add new bitstreams to existing 
records.  Is it possible to do this in some other way than using the 
edit-metadata screen?

Thank you,
Irene Berry

[Dspace-tech] handle server points to the wrong thing

2012-10-31 Thread Berry, Irene (CIV)
Hello all,
I have an maybe-unusual DSpace set up where we use the xmlui for our public 
face of the repository, and the jpsui for submissions/management, etc.  In 
effect, our jspui side mirrors the xmlui side, so the side with the login only 
gets used by our staff.

Yesterday, something changed after we restarted the handle server.  On public 
(xmlui) side,  the link in each record to the URI began to point the user to 
the admin (jspui) side.  Anytime a person clicks on the handle record page for 
an item, they are pointed to the admin side.

We are using DSpace 1.8.

We've got documentation, followed the indications and restarted the server, but 
the problem has persisted now for more than 24 hours.  Does this sound at all 
familiar to anyone?

This is our site: http://calhoun.nps.edu  If nothing else, feedback about what 
you see when you try to access  the handle pages, would be helpful. (Example 
here: http://calhoun.nps.edu/public/handle/10945/13392)

Thank you for any new ideas about what might be going on,
With appreciation for this place --

Bingo!  Our documentation had it backwards.  We're all better now and pointing 
back to the XMLUI, as intended.
Thank you for being there, everyone.

Hi Irene,

what's the value of your "dspace.url" in dspace.cfg? It should point to XMLUI.

Regards,

[Dspace-tech] "View Accepted Submissions" displays nothing now -- setting?

2013-01-08 Thread Berry, Irene (CIV)
Hello everyone,
Some of my catalogers have suddenly lost the ability to see what they've added 
to the repository.  When they click "view accepted submissions" in My DSpace, 
the results screen is blank, where they used to see 90+ items.  Is there a 
setting I don't know about?

In my case, I can see my submissions, and so can one of the others.  Two can't 
see anything anymore.

They are logged into My DSpace, using using XMLUI, DSpace 1.8.2.

Thank you for any insights you may have.
Appreciatively,
Irene Berry
