Server Roles: Hosting vs Federated

WilliamShoop — Mon, 13 May 2019 14:06:32 GMT

Good day all,

We have installed and configured an ArcGIS Enterprise 10.6.1 with a server site that includes 2 ArcGIS Servers federated with portal (single machine). When looking at the server site's admin Security>Config page I noticed that the server role is listed as 'HOSTING SERVER'

Shouldn't this be listed as a 'FEDERATED SERVER'? Currently our environment seems to be functioning normally, but was wondering if this will cause problems down the road. Please see below how the federation looks in Portal>Edit Settings>Servers

Please note that we have three data stores installed on one machine that is registered with the server site.

Thanks,

Bill

Hi Bill,

This is expected behavior when you have a designated hosting server set for your Portal environment and won't cause any issues down the road.

Best,

Tom
