ESO Archive Frequently Asked Questions

CalSelector: Why are there fewer xml files than datasets as the result of my request?

Under certain circumstances CalSelector does not return an xml file if no association could be established for the input science files (normally it should return an xml file in all cases). The requested input science files are, however, correctly made available for download.
