Background:
- ArcGIS Enterprise
- ArcGIS Pro Named User License
Our organization has several automated processes. These processes:
- Pull data from APIs.
- Analyze or reformat the data.
- Update the ArcGIS Enterprise Geodatabase using Data Interoperability extension, Spatial Analyst extension, and arcpy.
- All of the automation is currently residing on the same machine that contains Postgresql and Enterprise Geodatabase (so another reason why we want to separate these).
FME workspaces are stored as tools in the ArcGIS Pro project Toolbox along with some .pyt tools.
We’re preparing a solution to move the process to a Linux VM to replace the current Windows and windows Task Scheduler solution, so we also want to separate these.
Can this automated system be transferred to the Linux environment?
Our current setup uses an ArcGIS Enterprise named user account.
How does license authentication work when moving to Linux?
Are there any considerations regarding licensing?
Can geoprocessing tools, spatial ETL tools, and .pyt scripts be directly copied and pasted from the existing Windows setup to the new Linux environment and then, called using python? Or are these reliant on ArcGIS Pro installation, and therefore, have to be changed into a more standard execute fme workspace and import and run python scripts?
