Warning
titleAIP Backup & Restore doesn't yet work for Configurable Entities

Configurable Entities are not fully supported by AIP Backup & Restore.  Since Entities are Items, their basic metadata can be exported/imported via AIPs.  However, their relationships to other Entities cannot yet be exported (or imported) via AIPs.  Therefore, restoring Entities via AIP Backup & Restore may result in accidental data loss (namely loss of relationships).  See https://github.com/DSpace/DSpace/issues/2882 for more information.


Warning
titleAIP Backup & Restore functionality only works with the Latest Version of Items

If you are using the Item Level Versioning functionality (disabled by default), you must be aware that this "Item Level Versioning" feature is not yet compatible with AIP Backup & Restore. Using them together may result in accidental data loss.  Currently the AIPs that DSpace generates only store the latest version of an Item.  Therefore, past versions of Items will always be lost when you perform a restore / replace using AIP tools.
