Sun Java System Portal Server 7.2 Administration Guide

Sources Available at the MetaData Filtering Stage

At the MetaData stage, the robot encounters a URL for a resource but it has not downloaded the resource’s content. Thus information is available about the URL as well as data that is derived from other sources such as the filter.conf file. At this stage, however, information about the content of the resource is not available.
