- You don't need to install an ArcSDE Application Server (Also called "ArcSDE service" in ESRI documentation) if you want to connect to your geodatabase, use Direct Connect instead. The ArcSDE Application Server will no longer be available after ArcGIS 10.2, so it is highly recommended to switch to Direct Connect at this point in time. - You may need an ArcGIS for Server installation if you use it to create webservices (ESRI Map, Image, Feature Services or WMS, WFS or any of the other service types it supports). If you're not interested in serving your own webservices, you don't need ArcGIS for Server. - Use the new geoprocessing tools in the Geodatabase Administration toolset in ArcGIS for Desktop for management and creation of your ESRI enterprise geodatabase. See for example the Blog article by ESRI's Melissa J linked below, and the second link to the Geodatabase Administration toolset: Do This, Not That! �?? Alternatives to using SDE command line tools: http://blogs.esri.com/esri/supportcenter/2013/10/04/do-this-not-that-alternatives-to-using-sde-command-line-tools/#sthash.YiYFmz5c.dpuf Geodatabase Administration toolset An overview of the Geodatabase Administration toolset You may find it helpful to read these two PDF documents I created: The ESRI Geodatabase Framework http://forums.arcgis.com/threads/83644-quot-The-ESRI-Geodatabase-Framework-quot-PDF?p=295462&viewfull=1#post295462 The ESRI Geodatabase Framework - Future developments at ArcGIS 10.2 and 11 http://forums.arcgis.com/threads/83644-quot-The-ESRI-Geodatabase-Framework-quot-PDF?p=303021&viewfull=1#post303021 Thanks you. We use direct connections so no need for the application server. I have upgraded my 9.3.1 database to 10.1 successfully. I currently have server 9.3.1 installed on the same server the DBMS and geodatabases are stored on. I will likely retroactively upgrade to server 10.2 (as well as upgrading client apps to 10.2 and subsequently gdbs to 10.2) in the near future.

I guess you meant to say: "... do I have to uninstall the ArcSDE 9.3.1 Application Server from my database server..." ? If so: yes. Of course, the geodatabase itself with the entire ArcSDE Repository and the ArcSDE and geodatabase system tables therein, should be left untouched, otherwise nothing is left to upgrade... Don't forget you need to install an appropriate database client. Without client, you won't be able to connect any more once your Application Server is down! There may also be an extra issue if you decided to migrate to a new server and in the process go from a 32 bit to 64 bit environment... There are descriptions for that in the Help, but it isn't an easy task. I am upgrading from 9.3.1 to 10.1 and just want to make sure I have my ducks in a row. Are these the general steps I need to take: 1. Make backups, check permissions, etc, etc 2. Uninstall ArGIS Server 9.3.1 including ArcSDE from the server(and delete ArsSDE services) 3. Install ArcGIS for Server 10.1 on the server(?) 4. Upgrade from client via ArcCatalog I guess my confusion is when reading through the steps on http://resources.arcgis.com/en/help/main/10.1/index.html#/Preparing_to_upgrade_a_geodatabase_in_SQL_Server/002q000000m6000000/ It says that I need to install the current release of ArcGIS client on a computer that can directly connect. I've got that and checked the connection. Do I need ArcGIS for Server 10.1 installed on my server? I assume the answer is yes but I'm not reading that explicitly in those steps. I just see to get rid of the old 9.3.1 install.

I am trying to use the edit widget. I'm using PostGRE with ArcSDE. I turned versioning 'off'. And gave all permissions to 'public' user using the 'privileges' tool. When I try to run the edit widget it says I have no editable layers. All services have feature access. In my config file it reads. <operationallayers> <layer label="Other Assets" type="dynamic" visible="false" alpha="1.0" url="http://virginislands.cnr.ncsu.edu/ArcGIS/rest/services/590mcwhiteh/mcwhitehOther/MapServer"/> <layer label="Nutrition Locations" type="dynamic" visible="true" alpha="1.0" url="http://virginislands.cnr.ncsu.edu/ArcGIS/rest/services/590mcwhiteh/mcwhitehNut/MapServer"/> <layer label="Grocery Stores" type="dynamic" visible="true" alpha="1.0" url="http://virginislands.cnr.ncsu.edu/ArcGIS/rest/services/590mcwhiteh/mcwhitehGro/MapServer"/> <layer label="Public Schools" type="dynamic" visible="true" alpha="1.0" url="http://virginislands.cnr.ncsu.edu/ArcGIS/rest/services/590mcwhiteh/mcwhitehPub/MapServer"/> </operationallayers> My services displayed fine but still no editable layers. Using another forum post to help I change the config to read: <operationallayers> <layer label="Other Assets" type="dynamic" visible="false" alpha="1.0" url="http://virginislands.cnr.ncsu.edu/ArcGIS/rest/services/590mcwhiteh/mcwhitehOther/MapServer"/> <layer label="Nutrition Locations" type="feature" visible="true" alpha="1.0" url="http://virginislands.cnr.ncsu.edu/ArcGIS/rest/services/590mcwhiteh/mcwhitehNut/FeatureServer"/> <layer label="Grocery Stores" type="feature" visible="true" alpha="1.0" url="http://virginislands.cnr.ncsu.edu/ArcGIS/rest/services/590mcwhiteh/mcwhitehGro/FeatureServer"/> <layer label="Public Schools" type="feature" visible="true" alpha="1.0" url="http://virginislands.cnr.ncsu.edu/ArcGIS/rest/services/590mcwhiteh/mcwhitehPub/FeatureServer"/> </operationallayers> Still no editable layers and now the services are not displaying on the map. Any help in this matter would be appreciated.
