[GeoNetwork-devel] Schedule & harwesting

Hi list, can we still use the schedules tag in config.xml (version 2.1) in order to harwest 2.0.3 nodes ?

or should we use the harwesting management module in admin interface ?

Cheers.
Francois

Hi Francois,

The harvesting schedule does not exist anymore so you cannot
do that. If you want this option, I think that it is easier to enhance
geonetwork 2.0.x with the missing services than adding a new
harvesting submodule to GN 2.1.

Actually GN 2.0 can harvest from GN 2.1 but the point of having
GN 2.1 harvest from 2.0 is more subtle. Version 2.1 uses uuids for
site-ids and this allows hierarchical harvesting while 2.0 does not.
This means that if you harvest from a 2.0 node in hierarchical way
you could get anomalies and unexpected removal of harvested metadata.

In general, I suggest to migrate to version 2.1 which is far better
than 2.0 from any point of view instead of mixing the harvesting capabilitites.

Cheers,
Andrea
