Managing EPICS Process Variables’~(PVs) metadata, such as the host and the contact, is one of the important tasks for the operation of large-scale accelerator facilities with minimal downtime. Record Sychronizer~(RecSync) provides a way to manage such crucial information in an EPICS Input-Output Controller~(IOC). RecCeiver-ETCD is the server component of the RecSync-ETCD, or an extension of RecCeiver for ETCD. In the previous work, the client component of RecSync, or RecCaster, has been extended to RecCaster-ETCD to store the metadata into an ETCD key-value store. An important remaining step to the production use is to introduce a connection between ETCD and ChannelFinder, which is achieved by RecCeiver in the RecSync system. RecCeiver-ETCD plays the role of the original RecCeiver in the RecSync-ETCD system. RecCeiver-ETCD is designed to perform the specific operation, bridging the communication between ETCD and ChannelFinder. In addition, its simple implementation does not hold it down to ChannelFinder and makes it easy to extend RecCeiver-ETCD out to the other applications.
