Basic configuration
The Archives.xml can be used to configure the connection between your sa,oc or fss with the archive. For an sa or oc the configuration only consists of the catalogueUrl in case you have configured the archive according the standard (which is usually the case).
...
To test if the fileServer url is correct append /catalog.html to the url configured and paste this url in an intenet browser. If the url is correct a list of the files and directories in the root of the data folder in the archive will be visible.
Optional configuration
ElasticSearchUrl
By default FEWS will assume that the elastic catalogue is running at the same server as the archive web application at the port 9200.
...
You should get a response like this.
Enabled
In some configurations maybe not all components of the system need direct access to the Archive, so an optional Enabled element can be added to control this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<archives xmlns="http://www.wldelft.nl/fews" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.wldelft.nl/fews https://fewsdocs.deltares.nl/schemas/version1.0/archives.xsd">
<enabled>$ARCHIVE_ENABLED$</enabled>
<catalogueUrl>http://dummy_server:7080/deltares-archive-server/catalogue</catalogueUrl>
<elasticSearchUrl>http://dummy_server:7080/deltares-archive-server/elastic</elasticSearchUrl>
</archives> |
In this example a global property $ARCHIVE_ENABLED$ is used to control if the archive connection is enabled, this allows for example OC clients or FSS nodes (each having their own global properties) to not allow connections to the archive in specific cases. Doing so will of course disable seamless integration on these systems.
Archive database
It is possible to store scalar data inside a database instead of in netcdf files. In the Archives.xml the details of the database (URL, username and password) and the details about how to load the plugin for the archive database should be configured. At the moment there is a plugin available for MongoDB.
