Old Release

This documentation covers an old version of Fedora. Looking for another version? See all documentation.

There is one configuration parameter in $FEDORA_HOME/server/config/fedora.fcfg that controls PID assignment:

pidNamespace – The default namespace for objects that don't specify a PID. A unique PID in this namespace will automatically be assigned by Fedora as needed. If the PID is specified, any valid namespace can be chosen. Allowed patterns for namespaces are:

  • can be from 1 to 17 characters
  • may only contain A-Z, a-z, 0-9, '.', or '-' (dash)

All ingested objects' specified PIDs will be retained and the only time a PID will be auto-generated is if the ingested object specifies no PID at all.

  • No labels
