Hi
i am using SAFbuilder batch import into DSpace 
if i execute safbuilder.sh file then i will create 1 directory for 1 pdf file it contains dublin_core.xml,contets and pdf file.
it is ok if files is less but if files are bigger size and no of file are in millions  then it will double the system disk size.
SAFBilder making copy of each pdf size in directory.
how to avoid it and  how to customise SAFBuilder package.

Hi Ranjit. That's the way SAFbuilder works. You have 2 options:

1- Modify SAFbuilder code to make it move files instead of copying them.

Or

2- Just split your millions of files in small batches. Once you imported them into DSpace (and checked that it is all OK)  then you can delete your source files and all the folders and files that SAFbuilder created., freeing disk space. Then start a new batch and so on!.

Regards.

Diego
