CUAHSI Archive

Setting up a CUAHSI archive

1. Portal configuration

• Both the units ontology and the measured property ontologies need to be set to CUAHSI.

2. Archive configuration

• Select CUAHSI as the archive name and push frequency.
• Enter archive URL, username, and password.

3. Create sites, instruments and variables

• Site names and CUAHSI site codes need to be unique.
• Specify a site type for each site.
• Specify a topic category for each instrument.
• Specify a measured property and general category for each variable.

4. Configure resources

• Return to archive configuration page
• Configure resources in the following order: sources, sites, instruments, variables

5. The archive is now ready to receive data!

Note: If new sites, instruments, or variables are added, be sure to also configure them in the archive.

Monitoring the archive

The archive jobs link on the archive configuration page leads to a list of existing archive jobs. Each archive job corresponds to a specific time frame as determined by the push frequency. Each archive job will have one of the following statuses:

• scheduled: data values are scheduled to be pushed into the archive
• success: data values were successfully pushed into the archive
• failure: one or more data values failed to be pushed into the archive.

If an archive job has failed, the message will contain the timestamps of the measurements that could not be pushed and the error that occurred.
