Actually, to be totally sure, there is one more thing we should confirm. That the delete file contained records in it that "SHOULD HAVE MATCHED" records already in the repos.

Yuck, that's what I feared. Bug for Chris, I will open in FB.

according to the harvest - the records are all new (ids that we haven't seen that are incrementally larger than the previously seen highest id)

Copying Chris, though he is still on vacation.

Can you tell what is happening?

For example, if the repos has 1 million records, and we process a delete file that deletes 10,000 of those, then the total number of records in the repos stays at 1 million. Are the deleted records being successfully matched to records in the repos and marked deleted, or are we creating new records that are marked deleted? Or perhaps everything is working correctly by the logs are not correct?

I just harvested and got 2272 deleted records.

Do you know if the records are marked as Deletes? If the actual record is not marked as a deleted record, then you have to process them with a parameter to tell the OAI Toolkit that they should be processed as deletes?

I processed one set of deletes (there are three files, one for each record type).

I ran the convertload_as_deleted.sh script to process them.

Import statistics summary: created 2272, updated: 0, skipped: 0, invalid: 4, deleted: 0, bib: 1789, auth: 1, holdings: 482 records. Invalid files: 0. It took 00:00:05.983. checkTime: 00:00:02.104. insertTime: 00:00:00.319. others: 00:00:03.560

I was expecting to see a lot more deleted than created, so this looks a little stange. However, I haven't done that much work with the deletes, so maybe this is typical.

I think I would have to run my own test, since the scenario explained above doesn't tell me enough (were 003s involved? if so, was care made to ensure that the 001/003s matched? because if they didn't then it would be acceptable to create new deleted records; if the 001/003s matched, then obviously that'd be a bug).
