My team is preparing to install ArcGIS Monitor 2023.2 on a 2019 Windows Server. The server has been setup, but a question came up that I can't find an answer to through documentation so I was hoping someone could provide some input. @DerekLaw already provided some information that will be really helpful, but would like to receive input from others.
This server had to be partitioned into two drives (C and D). The D drive has 150gb of disk space available and is capable of being expanded. The C drive only has 60gb or so space left on it and can't be expanded. Since the recommendation for the ArcGIS Monitor database is 100gb, we're thinking we will need to put it on the D drive.
My questions:
- Is there any issue with putting monitor on the C: drive and the database on the D drive?
- Would it be better to put both ArcGIS Monitor and database on the D drive?
I would also love if someone could point me to a blog on setting up the database portion of this! Do I get the appropriate Postgress installer from MyEsri or do I need to go out and find it myself. I haven't done much with Postgress, but according to the documentation here it looks like I only need to run a couple of SQL scripts to basically create the database, create the user, and set permissions. The next section on creating the schema is kind of confusing to me. How do the actual appropriate table schemas get generated?
Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks,
Lance
