Howdy,
I'm attempting to write a script which updates a tile cache with ManageMapServerCacheTiles_server. In order to speed up the script, I'd like to update only a subset of the tiles, and was hoping to use a feature class in the update_feature_class parameter to make the tool only recreate those tiles which cover that feature. ManageMapServerCacheTiles_server does recreate my tiles, however it insists on always doing every single tile instead of only those which intersect my feature in update_feature_class. On a possibly related note, it seems that setting update_mode="Recreate Empty Tiles" still results in the tool recreating every single tile. I have confirmed that the lyr file I am using only covers a small portion of the total map.
Has anyone gotten the feature class constraint on ManageMapServerCacheTiles_server to work correctly? Can you tell me what I am doing wrong?
--------------------------------------
My code:
InServer="localhost"
InMap="TexPopTest"
InDataFrame="Layers"
RemoveLayers=""
RedoLevels=""
RedoUpdateMode="Recreate All Tiles"
RedoUpdateFeatureClass="J:\wptc\Shapefiles\Selector2.lyr"
arcpy.ManageMapServerCacheTiles_server(server_name=InServer, object_name=InMap, data_frame=InDataFrame, Layer=RemoveLayers, levels=RedoLevels, update_mode=RedoUpdateMode, update_feature_class=RedoUpdateFeatureClass)
cheers,
jonathan
