The table rcDestination gives the name of the data store product and various other data. It was expected that each site that wanted to receive particular types of data would have it's own data store product.

The optional column status_uri is the address of a data store product on the receiver's site. If set the data store server will periodically query that data store. The remote client posts filesets on that site to notify the server that particular data has been received. It was envisioned that once all sites interested in a particular bundle had downloaded it, the ipp would be free to recover the disk space. This feature is not being used.
