Tim Donohue created DS-1374:
-------------------------------
Summary: AIP Backup & Restore functionality does NOT
backup/restore past versions of Items
Key: DS-1374
URL: https://jira.duraspace.org/browse/DS-1374
Project: DSpace
Issue Type: Bug
Components: DSpace API
Affects Versions: 3.0
Environment: 3.0-rc3 in any environment
Reporter: Tim Donohue
Priority: Critical
Fix For: 3.0
The DSpace AIP Backup & Restore functionality does not store all Item Version
information in AIPs.
Instead, if you export a DSpace AIP for an item having several versions, only
the MOST RECENT version is actually exported to the AIP. This means that only
the most recent version can be restored at any time, and all previous versions
are "lost".
Essentially the DSpace AIP Backup & Restore is currently not fully compatible
with the new Item Versioning feature. No actual errors are thrown when using
AIP Backup & Restore in DSpace 3.0, but you will lose all previous versions of
items whenever a restore/replace is performed.
Relevant links in docs:
* https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSDOC3x/AIP+Backup+and+Restore
* https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSDOC3x/DSpace+AIP+Format
* https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSDOC3x/Item+Level+Versioning
Unfortunately, I'm not sure how easy this will be to fix/resolve. It may
actually require modifications to the existing DSpace AIP Format, to ensure it
is able to capture Item version information.
