Export Account Configuration File without Installing Portal or Server

cjms — Mon, 15 Dec 2025 18:08:25 GMT

When installing ArcGIS Portal or Server, there is an option to export the account info to a configuration file.

Since I already have Portal / Server installed, is there a way to get this configuration file from the existing Portal / Server without running through the full setup?

I'd like to have the configuration file for future installs / upgrades.

Hi @cjms,

I hope you are well.

I am pretty sure that you can export the config file by re-running the Configure Service Account utility tool with the same username/password of the account running all Enterprise services.

Let me know if you have any issues.

Regards,

Glen
