I think I'll know better once I see some examples, Sanjaya, so looking forward to them, please proceed.

PGETaskInstance takes both dynamic metadata and workflow >configuration as an input and it combines them to create PgeMetaData >object. Main purpose of the Airavata integration with OODT is to stage >input files and ingest output data back to file manager server and >Metadata >catalog. Since workflow configuration is managed by Airavata itself, it is >possible to configure only dynamic Metadata which should configure items >such as QUERY_CLIENT_TRANSFER_SERVICE_FACTORY and >QUERY_FILE_MANAGER_URL(Then static Metadata is represented by Metadata >object which doesn't have any properties.
