Files’ details

In the object preservation process, each of the files that compose it is affected by different processes and actions on it. Regardless of the type and size of a file, all of them, without exception, are treated by the different services that make up LIBSAFE. This view shows in detail all the events that have taken place with the consulted file.

To access this information, just click on the name of the file to be consulted, which is shown in the section: File and folder structure.

The sections of the current view show general file data and then data from integrity check algorithms.

All defined or associated algorithms will be listed in the file detail information summary in the File Hash row.

Within the Hash table inside this row, there are 4 rows describing:

  • Hash algorithm: the cryptographic algorithm that was used.

  • Hash value: the result of the calculation with the algorithm on the file.

  • Creation date: Date on which the calculation was performed.

  • Main: Indicates which of the algorithms is the common algorithm used for all processes in the preservation plan including internal system processes for verification, such as movement of objects between disks, retrieval of object files, among others.

The following interface shows the different events that have occurred in the file.

Then the retrieve jobs that have been requested and in which the file has been involved.

And finally the options or general actions that can be performed on the file.

In this way and through this interface it is possible to know in detail everything related to a file that is part of an object.
