## 2016-11-01
- Add `dc.type` to the output options for Atmire's Listings and Reports module ([#286](https://github.com/ilri/DSpace/pull/286))
![Listings and Reports with output type](2016/11/listings-and-reports.png)
## 2016-11-02
- Migrate DSpace Test to DSpace 5.5 ([notes](https://gist.github.com/alanorth/61013895c6efe7095d7f81000953d1cf))
- Run all updates on DSpace Test and reboot the server
- Looks like the OAI bug from DSpace 5.1 that caused validation at Base Search to fail is now fixed and DSpace Test passes validation! ([#63](https://github.com/ilri/DSpace/issues/63))
- Indexing Discovery on DSpace Test took 332 minutes, which is like five times as long as it usually takes
- At the end it appeared to finish correctly but there were lots of errors right after it finished:
```

```
- DSpace is still up, and a few minutes later I see the default DSpace indexer is still running
- Sure enough, looking back before the first one finished, I see output from both indexers interleaved in the log:
```

```
- I will raise a ticket with Atmire to ask them
## 2016-11-06
- After re-deploying and re-indexing I didn't see the same issue, and the indexing completed in 85 minutes, which is about how long it is supposed to take
## 2016-11-07
- Horrible one liner to get Linode ID from certain Ansible host vars:
```
$ grep -A 3 contact_info * | grep -E "(Orth|Sisay|Peter|Daniel|Tsega)" | awk -F'-' '{print $1}' | grep linode | uniq | xargs grep linode_id
```
- I noticed some weird CRPs in the database, and they don't show up in Discovery for some reason, perhaps the `:`
- I'll export these and fix them in batch:
```
dspace=# \copy (select distinct text_value, count(*) from metadatavalue where metadata_field_id=230 group by text_value order by count desc) to /tmp/crp.csv with csv;
COPY 22
```
- Test running the replacements:
```
$ ./fix-metadata-values.py -i /tmp/CRPs.csv -f cg.contributor.crp -t correct -m 230 -d dspace -u dspace -p 'fuuu'
```
- Add `AMR` to ILRI subjects and remove one duplicate instance of IITA in author affiliations controlled vocabulary ([#288](https://github.com/ilri/DSpace/pull/288))
## 2016-11-08
- Atmire's Listings and Reports module seems to be broken on DSpace 5.5
![Listings and Reports broken in DSpace 5.5](2016/11/listings-and-reports-55.png)
- I've filed a ticket with Atmire
- Thinking about batch updates for ORCIDs and authors
- Playing with [SolrClient](https://github.com/moonlitesolutions/SolrClient) in Python to query Solr
- All records in the authority core are either `authority_type:orcid` or `authority_type:person`
- There is a `deleted` field and all items seem to be `false`, but might be important sanity check to remember
- The way to go is probably to have a CSV of author names and authority IDs, then to batch update them in PostgreSQL
- Dump of the top ~200 authors in CGSpace:
```
dspace=# \copy (select distinct text_value, count(*) from metadatavalue where metadata_field_id=3 group by text_value order by count desc limit 210) to /tmp/210-authors.csv with csv;
```
## 2016-11-09
- CGSpace crashed so I quickly ran system updates, applied one or two of the waiting changes from the `5_x-prod` branch, and rebooted the server
- The error was `Timeout waiting for idle object` but I haven't looked into the Tomcat logs to see what happened
- Also, I ran the corrections for CRPs from earlier this week
