Please I would like to know if there is a new and easier way to achieve the transfer of map services from one ArcGIS server machine to another ArcGIS server machine. I have over 400 map services to transfer.
Some two years back I was able to achieve this using the discomap.ServiceTransferTool that i found on this forum and the transfer was made from Version 10.4 to 10.5. Now we upgraded to a full ArGIS Enterprise environment 10.6.2 (ArcGIS Server, Portal for ArcGIS and Datastore) unfortunately the tool has failed and every effort have proved abortive. I keep getting this "No JSON object could be decoded" error. I am not good with JSON and I couldn't figure out what it is that is generating this errort.
I would really appreciate helps and contributions from anyone here.
thanks
Please see attached screenshots of the tool and the error I got when executed.

The error IOError: [Errno socket error] [Errno 11001] getaddrinfo failed means whatever hostname you're entering can't be found from the machine you're running the tool on. The ""No JSON object could be decoded" error is likely because the getaddrinfo error is sending back a None type object, (or at least something that isn't convertable to JSON), and when the script tries to convert to a JSON object, it fails.
Hi Jonathan,
I have been able to resolve the socket error issue by simply getting my IT department to change the port of the server from port 6443 to port 6080.
Now I am able to push the map services and folders over to the new server but unfortunately, it now comes up with another error of not able to publish the service due to errors found during the analysis. (it does not specify what exactly the error is)
Please can you think of what could be the problem here.
Your contribution will be highly appreciated.
