Utility Network / Stage Utility Network Tool

Question

Hi for all,

I try to create an Stage Utility Network from Utility Network Package Tools, but without succes.
For Input data I have:
1. Enterprise Geodtabase: SQL Server 2016 Enterprise Geodatabase
2. Service Teritory Feature Class: Polygon Feature class with a single feature (extend of working area)
3. Feature Dataset Name: ReteaApa
4. Utility Network Name: Retea

I receive an error message referring to "Service Teritory Feature Class". Geoprocessing tool can't find "ServiceTeritory_1" into "ReteaApa" Feature Dataset (3).
Its likely this tool can't create a featureclass "ServiceTeritory_1" into Featuredataset (3).
After check the Geodatabase, i found a feature class "ServiceTeritory_1" outside of "ReteaApa" Feature Dataset (3):

Below is the error message:

A python error occurred.

Hi,

Your "Service Territory Feature Class" parameter should typically be from a separate File or Enterprise Geodatabase and not from the same SDE where you are staging UN in.

The workflow I follow is;

1. Use Esri supplied Water Distribution Asset Package and export it to another asset package using Change Asset Package Spatial Reference—Tool Reference | ArcGIS Solutions  This creates another asset package with empty feature classes in the coordinate system I want.

2. Using Pro, manually add a service territory polygon in FGDB created in step 1.

3. Stage Utility Network with Service Territory from step 2.

Hope this helps.

Cheers,

Vish
