MapServers with NaN full extent and nothing in "Layers"

This is super strange. I am working with ArcGIS Pro 2.1 and ArcGIS Enterprise 10.6.

I have shapefiles saved on a server machine and I create a Map View with those in ArcGIS Pro.

I then register the dataset with ArcGIS Server (I have all the Enterprise stack installed on a single machine, which is not the same as the one which stores the data).

I share the map as a Map Image Layer with data registered option checked and the service is succesfully published.

I can see it from Portal, Manager, REST, and I am able to navigate my MapService and query it.

However, I don't know what happened but all my MapServers published in the same way as just described are now accessible but empty.

Take this as example: Rete_Acquedotto (MapServer) 

There's nothing under "Layers" parameter, the full extent is all NaNs, and obviously, when I click "View in: ArcGIS JavaScript" I onkly get an empty map.

What could have caused the problem?

Could it be a network issue with the registered folder in the machine where I store the data?

I supposed that the REST should remain intact even if sometimes there's network interruption, but this seems like now my MapServers are completely corrupt!

Please help me understand the problem, I would be happy to give more details if needed.

The ArcGIS Server machine is a Windows Server 2012 R2 Stasndard.

Ok, the issue was indeed a network one. Basically, to let the GIS Server access data and folders on the DB server, during install I created a local arcgis user on the GIS server, assigned a password to it, and did the same with the DB server (same password).

Unfortunately, the password on the DB server expired, and nothing worked. After I set it to never expire, I restarted the ArcGIS Server and Data Store services and everything magically came back working.

Probably it's not like that, right?

Probably not.

Most likely it is. I just noticed that the server machine is not accessing the registered dataset due to the password being expired.

I am still checking this, but the problem should be this.

Will update the answer.
