  2. For each FileServer, a separate configuration file should be created under the GEODI Server to specify the directories to be indexed and other rules. Details are specified on the preceding page.

  • GDE installation may be converted to a Windows Service using the WindowsServiceInstall.bat script in the GDE folder.

    • WindowsServiceUninstall.bat uninstalls the service setup.
