OAI-PMH Server Maintenance
After activating the OAI-PMH server, you need to also ensure its index is updated on a regular basis. Currently, this doesn't happen automatically within DSpace. Instead, you must schedule the [dspace.dir]/bin/dspace oai import
commandline tool to run on a regular basis (usually at least nightly, but you could schedule it more frequently).
Here's an example cron that can be used to schedule an OAI-PMH reindex on a nightly basis (for a full list of recommended DSpace cron tasks see Scheduled Tasks via Cron):

# Update the OAI-PMH index with the newest content (and re-optimize that index) at midnight every day
# NOTE: ONLY NECESSARY IF YOU ARE RUNNING OAI-PMH
# (This ensures new content is available via OAI-PMH and ensures the OAI-PMH index is optimized for better performance)
0 0 * * * [dspace.dir]/bin/dspace oai import -o > /dev/null |
More information about the dspace oai
commandline tool can be found in the OAI Manager documentation.
