Just "Archiv" would be fine as well in most places, I think.

The Windows world uses this word as a translation for "deployment", i.e.

"einspielen"? Problem is that this cannot be properly turned into a noun.

"Erstellung einer Arbeitskopie" (gets less awkward when you make proper 
sentences from it).
