This example contains all the mandatory elements of this file. The output file defines were the data management tool should write its output. The output will be the list of data sets which are expired according the defined rules. The action element is optional and only required if a customTask requires this field in the resulting managementreport.csv. The predefined remove-data-from-archive task neglects the action element. When using the predefined remove-data-from-archive task, the backupFolder is needed as data to be removed from the archive is moved to

LifeTimeRules

The default life time defines the life time of a data set in the archive when there is not a more specific rule defined. In the example above there is no rule defined for external data sets. This means that the default life time will be used for  external data sets. For simulated data sets there is a specific rule defined in the tag lifeTimeSimulatedDataSets. This means that for simulated data sets the default life time will not be used but the more specific rule in the lifeTimeSimulatedDataSets. If needed it is possible to define specific rules for the other types of data sets in the archive like external forecasts, rating curves, configuration etc. An example is given below.
