Hi Ed. It is an interesting topic that you are inquiring about. It might help to understand whether the use of Test Points as Subnetwork Controllers causes issues in your situation, possibly you are not modeling Test Points, or if you are only exploring alternatives? I do believe that you should be fine to alter your tier to include rectifiers and anodes as controllers. The CP tier is a bit different from the system or pressure tiers in that we are not tracing upstream or downstream, but tracing to find the connected CP features. In this way, it makes sense to have a Test Point modeled as a subnetwork controller because it seems that these should always be used, whether it is a galvanic or impressed current system, and were not chosen for any logical reason such as a device that is 'controlling' anything related to CP. I would love to hear more about your use case.   ... View more

@jeannl, the documentation for 2.3 states that it is compatible for 10.9.1, so you can download the solution from ArcGIS Online and use with 10.9.1. I would, however, recommend using 11.1 as that is the most current long term release which follows the Utility Network Management Release.  Upgrading will not only give you a longer support window, but also give you the advantage of the upgrades since 10.9.1 was released. We understand that some organizations may have business reasons which prevent upgrading to 11.1, so if this is your case, you can stick with 10.9.1. ... View more

Hi @jeannl, I recommend that you update untools to the latest version (2.9.7) and use the latest version (2.3) of the Gas and Pipeline Referencing Utility Network Foundation which can be acquired from ArcGIS Online or ArcGIS Enterprise 11.2.  Would you mind creating a new post in ArcGIS Utility Network Questions after trying the above steps and posting the errors in the new post? This will give the issue more visibility with our support team here at Esri versus being posted in comments for a blog posting - it won't see the same eyeballs as it will in Utility Network Questions. Thank you. ... View more

Hi @Cristian_Galindo, could you also reach out to Customer Support to troubleshoot this issue? Unfortunately, when I deploy the solution in 4 different Online orgs, it is always successful. It sounds like it may be something specific to your user and/or Online organization and I would like Customer Support to troubleshoot. Have you tried deploying with a different username in your organization to see if it is tied to your username, or is an issue with  your Online organization? If customer support is unable to resolve, I can send you the package via email, just let me know. ... View more

@AparnaSunki - I'm sorry you are having problems deploying the solution. I have not seen this error before, and I am not able to troubleshoot the issue because I am not experiencing the error and I have tried in several different ArcGIS Online organizations. Could you reach out to Customer Support so that they can troubleshoot this issue and determine if this is something specific to your ArcGIS Online organization, or something more persistent? ...

Hi @Cristian_Galindo, This is strange and the only guess I have is that this is some type of caching issue. To verify, you deployed the solution in ArcGIS Online, correct? Can you try to deploy the solution from a browser window in Incognito (Chrome) or InPrivate (Edge) mode? ... View more

@lorenzoz I would like to add that the UN Foundation solutions have incorporated tasks that guide through how to reset the maps using the toolbox that @MichaelHirschheimer mentions. I mention this because referencing the tasks may help other users to avoid some of these pitfalls. It seems that the task framework is relatively unknown to a lot of users - hoping to get a slight bump here to promote awareness that may save time and effort to some of the more straightforward workflows to deploy. Here is a picture that shows a typical task framework that you would find in any of the UN foundation solutions as well as the location in the 'Tasks' folder: Gas and Pipeline Referencing Utility Network Foundation's 'Use' help doc:  ...

Hi @Cristian_Galindo, can you verify that you are using Pro 3.1? In this version of the solution, we are supporting both Enterprise 10.9.1 (Pro 2.9) and 11.1 (Pro 3.1). It appears that you are using the UtilityDataManagementSupport_3.1 toolbox, which requires Pro 3.1. I do not know if this would cause an issue, but is your "U" drive local or a network drive? ...

Hi @RichMosar, Could you provide more details on the data and workflow you are capturing? Capturing signal shift and overline remote earth sounds more like indirect assessment and this feature class is geared toward direct assessment.  From my understanding, many readings are taken via the indirect method which may (or may not) warrant storage in a system of record, but used to drill down on where to perform direct assessment. It is also my understanding that when doing the direct assessment, signal shift and overline remote earth are not taken.  Thank you for posting the question. It is impossible for the data model to reflect each utility's unique workflows, and extending the data model to meet your specific needs is expected. That being said, I would like to learn more so we can be sure that the data model supports the workflows that are common to all utilities. Please also take a look at the P_CPTestPointReading and P_CPRectifierInspection to see if these would meet your need. ... View more

Hi @ScottStruss. Let me first say I'm sorry that no one has answered this question and it has been almost a year. I assume you have found a solution by now, but I would still like to address this issue in hopes that it might still be helpful for you, or others. The Valve feature layer that you are suggesting to add the Curb and Service valves to are all noncontrollable valves (Excess Flow Valve, Relief Valve and Flow Valve). The Controllable Valve layer is intended for service and curb valves as they are meant to be manually operated by a person to cut off the flow of gas, versus the noncontrollable valves which have a dynamic mechanism controlling the operation. That being said, you could use the included Asset Type of 'Meter' for your service valve, and the 'System' valve for your Curb valve. If these do not fit your need, you may look to add different Asset Types and/or fields that may not be included in the default configuration. This is done by going into the field and editing the domain List of Values (see attached image). Further, this data model was derived from UPDM, and the full description of all features, fields, etc. is located at this page. In the first paragraph, there is a link to the Data Dictionary. Please let me know if any questions. ... View more
