1. If "auto-delete" was turned OFF, DuraCloud will never remove any content, until you explicitly tell it to. This means we may need a "cleanup" script or have an "audit" script which can clean up unnecessary files that still exist in DuraCloud that were removed from DSpace.
2. DuraCloud will accept updates to files. If you place a file into your sync folder with the name "ITEM-123454678-1.zip", and DuraCloud already has a file of that name in its storage space, DuraCloud will compare the files (via checksum). If they are different, the new file will overwrite the old file.
3. BIG ISSUE If you accidentally switched the "auto-delete" option back ON, DuraCloud may auto-delete all/most of your content. Bill Branan & I discussed this as a major concern that we need to resolve in some way. Maybe DuraCloud Sync Tool needs to default to not auto-delete content? Or, at the very least, explicitly WARN you if you tried to turn ON "auto-delete".

Auditing Functionality

Once content is in DuraCloud, we need a way to audit that content and compare it to what is currently in DSpace.
