ArcGIS Enterprise Datastore Reverts to Read-Only Mode After Server Reboot

Question

We are experiencing an issue with our ArcGIS Enterprise 10.91 setup, which includes a datastore deployed on a virtual machine (VM) server. Whenever this VM server reboots or we restart Enterprise services, the datastore automatically switches to Read-Only mode. To restore it to ReadWrite mode, we have to manually run the changedatastoremode command every time the server restarts.

Hello @NaveedAhmed2 ,

Thanks for sharing these. I agree with @CodyPatterson that there is nothing suspicious which is visible in these screenshot. However, I would also request if you can share a copy of the ArcGIS Data Store logs perhaps something may show up there.

In regards to bat script can be created to run the changedatastoremode. I think you can schedule that to run at machine start up after reboot. So it will run every time you restart the Server. kindly find a sample below:

Save the file with a .bat extension, for example, set_datastore_readwrite.bat.

@echo off
cd "<ArcGIS Datastore installation directory>	ools"
managedb changedatastoremode --mode readwrite --store relational

Place this batch file in the Windows Startup folder or use Task Scheduler to run it at startup.

Hope it helps!

Hey @NaveedAhmed2

That space is very much sufficient, no doubt about it!

I looked at your screenshot on the other comment, and I don't see anything immediately suspicious or problem causing. For the time being, a .bat script can be created to run the changedatastoremode for you for the time being, this would occur every time the server is restarted, and would keep it up to that extent while looking into it.

I'll keep checking things out, and let you know when I find something!
