1. Archive operation control. In the NewsBrowse
application, the user selects an asset, navigates to
the management tab, and selects the archive option.
The system queries the ASK for available archive
devices. (Also filters out for hi-res material that
already exists in archive by querying the Resolver).
The user then chooses an available archive. The
system queries the archive MDI to obtain a list of
available tape groups. The user then selects the
target tape group and initiates the archive operation.
IIS accepts the request and submits a transfer job to
the Archive MDI. The Archive MDI gets details about
the affected material from the News MDI. The
Archive MDI intiates the archive operation on the
archive device.

2. Transfer material. The archive device initiates the
transfer of material to/from the News system. Once
the transfer is complete, the Archive MDI updates the
Resolver to link the newly transfered hi-res material
to the existing metadata record in the system. The
MDI optionally initiates the removal of the online hi-
res material from the News system if the option to do
so was initially selected.
During the archiving process the system displays the
archive status which is retrieved from the Archive
MDI.
