Testing Special Cases during Restore/Replace

  • Restore withdrawal state
  • Restore embargo state
  • Restore permissions & roles (user/group permissions), if possible

Collection Restoration/Replacement

Special Cases

  • Restore permissions & roles (user/group permissions), if possible
  • Restore Collection-specific license
  • Restore Collection's Item Template?
  • Restore Collection's content source info? (e.g. OAI-Harvesting Collections versus normal Collections)

Community Restoration/Replacement

Special Cases
