- ICARDA apparently started working on CG Core on their MEL repository
- They have done a few
cg.*
fields, but not very consistent and even copy some of CGSpace items:

- Atmire got back about the Workflow Statistics issue, and apparently it’s a bug in the CUA module so they will send us a pull request
2017-05-04
- Sync DSpace Test with database and assetstore from CGSpace
- Re-deploy DSpace Test with Atmire’s CUA patch for workflow statistics, run system updates, and restart the server
- Now I can see the workflow statistics and am able to select users, but everything returns 0 items
- Megan says there are still some mapped items are not appearing since last week, so I forced a full
index-discovery -b
- Need to remember to check if the collection has more items (currently 39 on CGSpace, but 118 on the freshly reindexed DSPace Test) tomorrow: https://cgspace.cgiar.org/handle/10568/80731

- Discovered that CGSpace has ~700 items that are missing the
cg.identifier.status
field
- Need to perhaps try using the “required metadata” curation task to find fields missing these items:
$ [dspace]/bin/dspace curate -t requiredmetadata -i 10568/1 -r - > /tmp/curation.out
- It seems the curation task dies when it finds an item which has missing metadata

- Testing one replacement for CCAFS Flagships (
cg.subject.ccafs
), first changed in the submission forms, and then in the database:
$ ./fix-metadata-values.py -i ccafs-flagships-may7.csv -f cg.subject.ccafs -t correct -m 210 -d dspace -u dspace -p fuuu
- Also, CCAFS wants to re-order their flagships to prioritize the Phase II ones
- Waiting for feedback from CCAFS, then I can merge #320

- Start working on CGIAR Library migration
- We decided to use AIP export to preserve the hierarchies and handles of communities and collections
- When ingesting some collections I was getting
java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: GC overhead limit exceeded
, which can be solved by disabling the GC timeout with -XX:-UseGCOverheadLimit
- Other times I was getting an error about heap space, so I kept bumping the RAM allocation by 512MB each time (up to 4096m!) it crashed
- This leads to tens of thousands of abandoned files in the assetstore, which need to be cleaned up using
dspace cleanup -v
, or else you’ll run out of disk space
- In the end I realized it’s better to use submission mode (
-s
) to ingest the community object as a single AIP without its children, followed by each of the collections:
$ export JAVA_OPTS="-Dfile.encoding=UTF-8 -Xmx2048m -XX:-UseGCOverheadLimit"
$ [dspace]/bin/dspace packager -s -o ignoreHandle=false -t AIP -e some@user.com -p 10568/87775 /home/aorth/10947-1/10947-1.zip
$ for collection in /home/aorth/10947-1/COLLECTION@10947-*; do [dspace]/bin/dspace packager -s -o ignoreHandle=false -t AIP -e aorth@mjanja.ch -p 10947/1 $collection; done
$ for item in /home/aorth/10947-1/ITEM@10947-*; do [dspace]/bin/dspace packager -r -f -u -t AIP -e aorth@mjanja.ch $item; done

- The CGIAR Library metadata has some blank metadata values, which leads to
|||
in the Discovery facets
- Clean these up in the database using:
dspace=# delete from metadatavalue where resource_type_id=2 and text_value=''
- I ended up running into issues during data cleaning and decided to wipe out the entire community and re-sync DSpace Test assetstore and database from CGSpace rather than waiting for the cleanup task to clean up
- Hours into the re-ingestion I ran into more errors, and had to erase everything and start over again!
- Now, no matter what I do I keep getting foreign key errors…
