[Dspace-general] FW: The handle link for a submitted document

[Scott, Rudolph]

Can anyone advise me on how to generate a local handle prefix? Thanks.

Hi. Happy New Year. Just going through this and wanted to ask is it possible just to use a local handle prefix? If so, can I just make up the prefix and edit the dspace.cfg then run the script [dspace]/bin/make-handle-config ? 

The reason I ask is that the UNIX server running dspace is not open to the internet so I'd rather use a local prefix to resolve a handle to a URL. Looking forward to your reply. Thanks.

Hi Rudolph,

the portion hdl.handle.net is correct as DSpace uses the handle system to create persistent identifiers. That's the resolving service of CNRI. 
The persistent URL of an item the handle is resolved
e.g.:
http://hdl.handle.net/2003/23167
will be resolved to
https://eldorado.uni-dortmund.de/handle/2003/23167

Among other things the handle prefix is part of the dspace.cfg ##### Handle settings ######

# CNRI Handle prefix
handle.prefix = 123456789

that's where you got your wrong prefix from.

Claudia
