We have updated the Data Archive file management system to a new software stack. This was done to enhance reliability, scalability and to keep the system up to date.

The migration has happened in the week of May 12th 2025 and the Archive was unavailable between May 12th and 16th. 

As a consequence of this migration, our suite of command-line tools to interact with the Data Archive has changed - specifically the "DMF commands". On this page, we provide documentation on the new commands. More specific instructions on how to migrate existing scripts to the new suite can be found here.

If you rely heavily on these commands for your workflows, we kindly ask you to plan adequate time to inspect the new commands and adjust your scripts. 

We encourage you to share your feedback, particularly regarding dmftar functionality and any issues you encounter with the new commands. Please contact us through the service desk or reply to our email communications.
