This is an example of a suite that is designed to run only once.
An old archive system contains data from 1990-01-01 to 1995-07-12.
This data needs to be copied to a new archive system.
The data needs to be processed before it is written to the new archive system.
- There are several types of data to be back-archived.
- Analysis
- Forecast
- Climatology
- Observations
- Satellite images
These data types can be copied independently.
The data is organised daily in the old archive. The system should copy one day of data at a time.
Only two tasks can access the old archive system at the same time.
What to do:
- Write the suite definition
- Design it so new data types can be easily added with their own periods
