A multi-measurement set (MMS) is an MS that has been split into sub-MSs.
An MMS contains a reference MS in the top directory and the sub-MSs are
located in a directory called SUBMSS inside the MMS directory.
Example of a MS that was partitioned in the 'scan' axis using the task partition:
ANTENNA FLAG_CMD POLARIZATION SPECTRAL_WINDOW table.dat
DATA_DESCRIPTION HISTORY PROCESSOR STATE table.info
FEED OBSERVATION SORTED_TABLE SUBMSS WEATHER
FIELD POINTING SOURCE SYSCAL
> ls ngc5921.mms/SUBMSS/
ngc5921.0000.ms/ ngc5921.0002.ms/ ngc5921.0004.ms/ ngc5921.0006.ms/
ngc5921.0001.ms/ ngc5921.0003.ms/ ngc5921.0005.ms/
The task lists the following properties of a multi-MS or MS:
sub-MS name, scan, spw list, list of number of channels per spw,
number of rows for each scan and the size in disk. Example of logger output:
Sub-MS Scan Spw Nchan Nrows Size

ngc5921.0001.ms 2 [0] [63] 1890 6.4M
