Howdy all, I've never used fedora before, and I've found myself in the position of needing to load thousands of objects with metadata into a test instance which I don't maintain (and won't have to maintain later). Timeline is tight so I need to figure this out fast. The data are very simple -- DC records which correspond with a bunch of image files that I have In the short time I've had to familiarize myself with fedora today, it appears that I need to use the batch utility. I've found some documentation, most notably at http://www.fedora-commons.org/download/1.0/userdocs/client/admin-gui/batch/<http://www.fedora-commons.org/download/1.0/userdocs/client/admin-gui/batch/index.html#d0e220> but I'm wondering where else I need to look. If someone could point me to documentation (or better yet, an example) that a n00b could use fairly quickly prep what I have so that it will be ready to go in, it would be highly appreciated. I'm concerned that if I try to plow through documentation until I get it, I'll run out of time.
