Steps to Update SSL Certificate in HA with Minimum Downtime

Question

Hi,

We have a mission-critical ArcGIS Enterprise environment in HA comprised of a total of eight machines:-

1. Two portal machines

2. Two Hosting server machines

3. Two ArcGIS DataStore (relational & tilecache) machines

4. Two WebAdaptor machines

I just wanted to know what steps we need to perform to minimize downtime on mission-critical ArcGIS environments

Any response/help will be highly appreciated.

Thanks

Ayush

For our HA environment, we just update in this order and didn't notice too much downtime. But to be sure, Maybe schedule a down time just in case.

1. Two WebAdaptor machines

2. Both Portal machines

3. Both ArcGIS Server Machines

4. Datastore machines
