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

If you are using the AIP Backup and Restore functionality to backup / restore / migrate DSpace Content, you must be aware that the "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.

Warning
titleVersioning history exposes data that may be considered personal

If you enable versioning, the name and email of the submitter are shown to all users by default in Version history. The only way to circumvent this is to make Version history visible only to admins by setting item.history.view.admin=false in [dspace]/config/modules/versioning.cfg. Another solution will be prepared, but only after the 3.0 release. See
