The following table shows GeoNetwork harvesting tests. The goal of these tests is to improve GeoNetwork's cross-platform interoperability. These results do not mean that the servers tested are not interoperable. Instead, they are showing that the combination of the GeoNetwork harvesting mechanism with the specified server and version have problems to interoperate. Those problems could be both in client-side (GeoNetwork harvesting) or in server side, and need to be fixed for the sake of the users community, and to help building connected SDIs.

Server	GN version and build	Harvesting	GetCapabilities URL	Software	Does harvest work?	Error	CSW version	Comments
ESRI GeoPortal 1.1.0.41	2.7 Build 7809	CSW	​http://localhost:5555/geoportal/csw?request=GetCapabilities&service=CSW&version=2.0.2	Yes		2.0.2		ESRI Geoportal installed on localhost with ISO19115 records. NOTE: If using 'Free text' in search criteria, specify search term with '%' wildcard characters eg. %ESRI% would search for records which have the string ESRI anywhere in their content.
