There are some tools that are designed to let you publish whatever you
want, so long as it is properly formatted XML. See if http://www.globus.org/toolkit/docs/4.0/info/aggregator/Execution_Aggregator_Source.html
walks you through the process explicitly enough.

Hi folks,
I've been using MDS registration and have written my MDS
registration file below. It works fine and I can see the resource
property values when I query the index service.
Is there a way for me to provide arbitrary content in the MDS
registration file that is exposed? From the wording of some user doc
I suspected I'd be able to use:
<agg:AggregatorData/>
e.g.
<agg:AggregatorData xsi:type="agg:AggregatorData">
<myMetaData>This is my meta-data</myMetaData>
</agg:AggregatorData>
But this didn't work. And I've since found other doc that explained
the role of AggregatorData in more detail (and which said I was
barking up the wrong tree).
So is there a way of exposing an arbitrary chunk of XML provided in
the registration file, via the index service? Or must it be done via
a resource property.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
mike
