GT 4.1.3 Tech Preview: MDS4 Archive Service

This component is a technical preview (commonly referred to as tech preview) for the GT 4.1.3 release. As such, this documentation is not part of the GT official documentation but is provided by the developer(s) to assist early adopters. This component has very limited support or GT documentation.

The Archive Service retrieves and stores snapshot or state information from Web Services (Grid Resources) at specified time intervals. If desired, a virtual organization can deploy one or more Archive Services to collect data on all of the Grid resources available within that virtual organization so that their usage or published information can be tracked over time.
