Let's say we have a feature dataset whose content has already been registered as versioned (using traditional versioning). We'd like to create a new feature class in that same feature dataset. It takes a lot of work to achieve this, as seen below:
1. Disconnect any users or web services connected to the feature classes within the feature dataset.
2. Reconcile and post edits to the default version.
3. Compress the enterprise GDB.
4. Unregister the feature dataset so it is no longer versioned.
5. Create the new feature class.
6. Register the feature dataset as versioned.
Is there a simpler way? The above steps are based on ESRI technical support case # 03638570.
To simplify the process, why not have ArcGIS Desktop or Pro automatically register the new feature class immediately after it is created?
