<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">Regarding the question of whether the Simple Schedule addresses offline service packages, one of the ServiceType values is “OFFLINE-TM-PROVISION”, which I have always assumed maps to an Offline Service Package.
If that is not the case, then what does OFFLINE-TM-PROVISION refer to?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">While it is true that the goal (assumption) in general is that offline services don’t need to be scheduled, we have made provisions for needs to do such scheduling in networks that are terrestrial WAN constrained.
The concept is that Offline Service Packages can be sporadically instantiated (e.g., scheduled) if the need exists, or they can be set up long term (e.g., for the duration of the Service Agreement) if there are no constraints on provisioning of ground bandwidth
– the only difference is in the start and stop times of the Offline Service Package. The Functional Resource Reference Model contains different “Configuration Categories” to support “Online” Service Packages (the Space Link Session (SLS) configurations that
involve an active space link) and “Offline” Service Packages (the Retrieval configurations for offline/complete return services and the (currently only one) Forward Offline configuration for the Forward File service).<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">With regard to the question of whether Offline Service Packages are evident in the Simple Schedules, the simple answer (no pun intended) is that if a Provider CSSS doesn’t need to *<b>schedule</b>* offline services
– i.e., they are available 24/7 – then they don’t appear in the Simple Schedule. But if they do need to be scheduled, then they could appear in the Simple Schedule with the ServiceType OFFLINE-TM-PROVISION. However, as currently constructed, the Simple Schedule
makes the OFFLINE-TM-PROVISION service part of a “ScheduledActivity” that is essentially defined as a pass or track. By this construction the provision of the offline TM “service” is defined as occurring between the beginningOfActivity and the endOfActivity.
Offline playback is often (or even mostly) time-discontinuous with space link session through which the played-back data are acquired. So the EndOfActivity would have to envelope the end of the last period that any of the data is scheduled to be played back.
That could result in an “activity” that spans a week even though the duration of the “track” itself is only 15 minutes.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">It’s also reasonable to question how useful the Simple Schedule-level information is with regard to such offline services. That is, who would care whether such entries appear in a Simple Schedule?

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">Just as a datapoint, I will say that In the SN, scheduling of playbacks is a way to make sure that offline services don’t impact simultaneous online services sharing the bandwidth of the ground network WAN links.
That network capacity is treated as a resource by the scheduling system. There are potentially other ground resources that could have capacity constraints (e.g. I/O bandwidth of a disk array, etc) which might make it preferable to schedule offline services
in some cases … Though I would agree that it does seem counter-intuitive, and there are possibly other decent ways to deal with preventing impact to online services..</span><o:p></o:p></p>

schedule definition. The rationale being that the notion of an off-line service package is frankly rather archaic by today’s standards (the SSF is really about who is utilizing which aperture and not who is scheduling access to an archive – really I have to
schedule access to an archive?). I believe that if an implementation really needs to note that data retrieval/off-line service packages are scheduled that can be accommodated by adding an appropriate implementation unique extension parameter or parameters
but I don't think there is really a widely supported business case here. Perhaps yet more discussion in Berlin
