I found a simple solution. The lyrx is really XML (or json). You just read it as simple text file (line by line, not as JSON) and replace the old URL with the new one (it exists in more then one line). Works great. Thanks

I have a map service that include Mosaic Dataset (Map service and NOT image service) I am trying to use arcpy to update from one server to another. I try to use layer.updateConnectionProperties but it does not work. The closest I get is layer.updateConnectionProperties(None, ’https://newserver/arcgis/rest/map1/MapServer’, validation=False) It gave me layer that have the correct source but is show with red exclamation mark and does not display. The mosaic is really a group of 4 layers but only the group can be changed. I noticed that is I try to open the properties in Pro and go to source the “set source” button is disabled. Is it possible?

It happened to me a few times in different places, so I need to know if anybody have this problem. The Monitor agent just crashed and must be restarted. Checking the event viewer it just says that the process terminated. If I check the event viewer a minute or two before the crash, I see a message that there is low virtual memory because a few ArcSOC processes took a lot of memory (over 10Gb). This is ArcSOC for gp services that can take a lot of memory (for example with Visibility gp tool). The last check of the monitor shows a lot of free memory. Is it possible that is the ArcSOC memory is large the Monitor agent cannot handle it?

I have a related question I have a gptool that return very long geojson string (not as a file but as a string). When I run my tool with the “view details” open I can see the messages and after the tool is done I can see the long output screen. After I close the “view details” each time I try to go to history and check the tool output again Pro just get black and I must kill the process. Why is that? Thanks

Hi @DanielFox1 Thanks for your answer. It is clear that you can trace this process with external tools. I just think this process SHOULD be traced by default by Monitor since it runs as part of the server and have some issues sometime. If it is by GeoEvent then it make sense to trace it too. If it running by other software it can be traced too. Why tracing powershell and not javaw?

The metrix of host (when server is installed) let you monitor the general CPU usage and also some specific processes (ArcSOC.exe for each service, ArcGisServer.exe, etc). It does not have matrix for javaw.exe, this process sometime takes a lot of resource. Why this process does not have it's own metrix and can we creaate one? Thanks

Hi @DerekLaw Sorry I did not update before but the Monitor return to life. I restarted the process (before I wrote the post) and at least 3 hours later I could not access the web page. The next morning it just work. It looks like it took long time to go back to life but finally it happened.

Our Monitor 2025.1 stop working after the disk was full. We extended the disk but the Monitor still not working. The Monitor server process is up and running and takes a lot of CPU. The database is working (we can connect) but no new records is added. All the command line gives the message that the service is not running. The web page does not load. We could not find any error messages anywhere. What else can we try? Thanks

I have a script that uses gp tools that takes a long time. The tool I am using is Build Overviews that can take long time but have many messages that showing the progress. When I run this tool within python script, I do not see these messages. I can only AddMessage before and after the tool. Is there any way to send the message to the display even if it runs inside a script. Thanks

Yes. If you do not want to copy the cache to the default cache directory then you need to register other directory that will contain the cache. Again, after you register the directory, publish a small raster to it (you have an option to choose cache location when you publish) just to see the dir/file structure. Have fun

First you have to define anther cache directory that point to the current location of your cache. Then when you publish with the correct name you have a radio of using existing cache. When you select it should say if it recognize your cache. Everything is based on the same names and location. A good way to get it right is to publish a small raster and ask the server to build the cache. Then you understand exactly the way it build.

ArcGIS GeoAnalytics Server is deprecated. GeoAnalytics Engine is not really a server product. Is there any other options?

‎02-17-2026

GeoAnalytics Desktop GP tools uses spark to run on big data from Pro. What will happened if I publish python script that include these tools as gp service? Is it supported? Will it uses spark on server? Is it going to be better then desktop if the server has more CPU's? Thanks

Hi All Bring this up again. See here: https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/latest/help/analysis/3d-analyst/interactively-create-a-profile-graph-with-digitized-lines-on-a-surface.htm#ESRI_SECTION1_9F698A40CD974AAC8CDC672FB2940104 I can create this with one click in Pro after I run line of sight. I cannot find a way to do it in arcpy. Thanks

Hi All The Append command respect this env but the doc's say it will work only for Enterprise geodatabase (why?) I checked and the Copy Features also respect this env and it let you copy the layer from Enterprise to FGDB and keep the global ids
