## Catalog Cleanup - Reconciliation Progress

- Catalog/DN data holding reconciliation
- Wrote program to extract data holding info from GEO, PPI and SBN, compared with Catalog, generated and reported discrepancies to GEO, PPI and SBN (Jan-Feb 2006)
- Generated reports for other Nodes (Mar-Apr 2006)
- Worked with Nodes to investigate initial discrepancies (Mar-Apr 2006)
- Posted April reports and status for each Node on EN web page  (Apr 2006)
-      _http://pds-engineering.jpl.nasa.gov/index.cfm?pid=3&cid=69_
- Updated program to query SBN & RINGS product server
- Re-generated reports for all Nodes (Jul 2006)
- Continued working with Nodes to resolve discrepancies
- Posted July reports and cumulated status for each Node on EN web page  (July 2006)

- PDS Management Council

## Catalog Cleanup - Discrepancy Causes

- Main reasons causing the discrepancies
- Data Set to be ingested into the PDS Catalog
- Catalog files yet to be given to EN
- Data Set in peer review or lien resolution state
- In the PDS Catalog, but not archived at Nodes
- Special product not to be included in the PDS Catalog
- Data Set stored off line at Nodes only
- Erroneous data set ID
- Archive status not up-to-date
- Multiple data set IDs for the same data set
- Superseded data set
- NSSDC IDs not up-to-date
- Backup resource not up-to-date

## Catalog Cleanup - Proposed Changes

- Local Archive -> Archive
- No policy stipulates when archive status changes from “Local Archive” to “Archive”
- Proposed change
- Change occurs when NSSDC ID (provided by Node) is ingested in the PDS Catalog
- Superseded Data Sets
- Superseded data sets are not searchable nor viewable
- Proposed change
- Update revision notes of the superseded data sets
- Provide an option to search and view the data sets
- Provide link to the data sets that succeed them

- PDS Management Council

## Process Improvement - Ingest Process

- Ingest process
- Reviewed and documented current process (Feb-May 2006)
- Focused on standardizing ingestion process across EN
- Identified potential “work around” for difficult / sizeable effort tasks
- Developed script to initialize / rebuild DE database
- Modified ingestion tool to auto-create result report
- Near-term improvement
- Build a tool to compare catalog files to be ingested against the catalog database, which will report differences
- Longer-term improvement
- Automate Ingest process by developing automated ingestion tool

- PDS Management Council

## Process Improvement - Release & Keyword Process

- Release process
- Drafted current process (Jul 2006)
- Next Step: Focus on identifying difficult / sizeable effort tasks and areas that can be streamlined (Aug 2006)
- Keyword approval process
- Examined current process (Jul 2006)
- Next step:
- Propose enhanced process (Aug 2006)
- Prototype a tool to support the new process (Aug 2006)
- Review by Nodes (Aug-Sept 2006)

- PDS Management Council

## Performance Monitoring - System Performance

- Automated System Monitoring
- EN servers
- EN applications
- Mirror Site
