GEODI Desktop Explorer (GDE) is the solution for indexing data from Client Computers in a central GEODI.
GDE is installed on each PC manually or automatically with tools like SCCM or PDQ.
Directories to be indexed are specified in the settings.
GDE processes the new and changed files every 3 hours.
GDE may run as a Windows Service.
GDE does not copy the contents to the server. The contents found as a result of a search are found and opened from the respective computer. If the computer or GDE is not turned on, you can search but not access the document. If you want to make a backup of the documents, you should turn on the "Backup Contents" setting for the corresponding Resource in the GEODI project.
