1. Projects
This tab is where you manage projects. Tasks such as creating Create new projects, editing projects with the project wizard, starting/stopping indexing are done here. Options may look different according to authorizations.
You create and edit projects with the project wizard. GEODI Project Wizard
GEODI Scanning Options
You can perform Scanning/Optimization operations of projects from the Projects menu.
...
Scan for Changes
It is used to add the changes made to the content scanned by GEODI to the GEODI index. Adjustments can be made based on source or project in an automatically scheduled manner.
...
Maintenance
Optimize
Recommended for better performance.
Apply Project Changes to Old Content
The changes you have made in your project do not need to be used to be effective on Index. For example, a new recognizer added to the project, so you can apply the changes in the project with a minimum loss of time. You can complete this process without the need to scan again.
Remove Deleted Content
GEODI keeps the resources on the Index it creates after scanning them, then this method is used to remove them from the GEODI Index when there is a situation such as deletion of these resources.
Edit Authorizations
Authorizations of users can be changed by institution administrators. In this case, the settings made via LDAP are automatically applied when this method is applied on GEODI so that no unauthorized person can see it.
...
Repair
Fast Repair
It is the first method to be used when there is a problem with the index.
Detailed Repair
In cases where the Quick Repair does not give results, you should choose the Detailed Repair method.
This method takes more time than the Quick Repair method.

Centrally Managing GEODI Servers
Many organizations may need multiple GEODI servers. Here are some reasons:
| Info |
|---|
BigData: Massive data distributed in various FilseServers, Databases, Sharepoint, e-Mails, Hive, ElasticSearch, and more; you will need multiple GEODI Servers to complete the discovery in a reasonable time scale. |
| Info |
|---|
Auto Classification: Auto Classification requires CPU resources, so we suggest separating the Classification servers from the discovery servers. You may also choose to use multiple servers behind a load balancer. |
| Tip |
|---|
A central login provider like LDAP or Microsoft is required for this method to work. |
The following jSettings definition should be in GEODI\Settings\DeceServers. You may define more than one setting. Every server you add will be listed on the project list as Displayname:WSName.
Check the URL with a browser before using it and eliminate any network problem caused by the firewall or any other reason. An error message will be shown if the URL is inaccessible or for authorization problems.
You may leave GenericSettings as shown or change it to override the workspace and report matching.

Consolidated Report
Master GEODI can generate a consolidated report from others. Each GEODI may have discovered different sources with different settings.
Workspace names and reports should be matched, or You may override match rules with "DefaultWorkspace":<proje> ve "DefaultReportID":<raporID> values. When you change these values GEODI will match the selected ones with that values.
