To use this, make sure that the "Search Data Archive" option is checked in your "Manage User Directories" settings. The ``FileFinder`` and algorithms such as :ref:`Load <algm-Load>` will then accept inputs such as "``HB2C_143210``". -- In the short term, for SNS instruments, the default "out of the box" behaviour will be to continue using ICAT for archive searching. This can be manually overridden by changing ``<archiveSearch plugin="SNSDataSearch" />`` to ``<archiveSearch plugin="ORNLDataSearch" />`` in your ``Facilities.xml`` file. Existing functionality should be almost completely unaffected, except that you may find that archive searching is a little quicker and slightly more robust. ``ORNLDataSearch`` will become the default option at SNS in a future version of Mantid.
