To All ArcGIS Server and Python Users: I have been working with generating and updating caches in v10. I have found that if I create a cache with 6 instances, I can generate a county wide cache of a complex vector cache in about 45 minutes. For maximum performance while in use with a web application, I reduce the instances to 1 minimum and 2 maximum. As such, when I update this cache in areas that have changed over the past 3 months, it takes over 2 hours since I am now only using 2 instances even though the entire cache is not being regenerated. I would like to be able to use python in a scheduled task to stop the mapservice, change the minimum and maximum instances to 5 and 6, start the mapservice again and then just regenerate the cache since it is quicker than updating only specific areas (In addition, the python code to regenerate an entire cache is much simpler than the code to trap the areas where layers in the mapservice have changed since the last cache). Once the cache is regenerated, I would then stop the service again, change the minimum and maximum instances to 1 and 2, and start the mapservice again. Is this functionality available for python with ArcMap v10.0?

To All ArcSDE Users: I have a feature class in SDE that I open up and see that the records are not sorted by the ObjectID field in ArcCatalog. I thought this was the default field that ArcCatalog uses to sort SDE records when a feature class table is first opened in ArcCatalog. What would cause an SDE feature class table not to be sorted by ObjectID by default? Additional information: This feature class has records appended to it from a join between another SDE feature class and a table in SQL Server 2005 that have common fields that are used for the join. These records are appended on a daily basis.

Marc: Are the file geodatabases that you are using dedicated to ArcGIS Server mapservices? If so, you should make sure that there are no locks lingering around after you stop the associated mapservices. Maybe the file geodatabases are also available to other endusers for their data which would place locks on the file geodatabases. Have you made sure that all services that are hitting the file geodatabases are stopped when you try to deleted the file geodatabases? Another solution that unfortunately would need more coding would be to truncate and append data from SDE to the file geodatabases. This operation does not crash due to schema locks as the structure of the file geodatabase remains the same.

Michele: What exactly did you need to do in regards to the crossdomain.xml file in order to get past the 502 Error? Did you need to specify a rule in the Reverse Proxy server for the crossdomain.xml file? If so, which rule did you use to pass the crossdomain.xml file? Your specific assistance is greatly appreciated.

Robert: So in Apache you do not place it in the root directory of the web applications which is c:\inetpub\wwwroot? Also, do you have your ArcGIS Server software on a Windows 2008 Server? If so, did you need to modify any application pool settings to get the mapservices to work properly through the Reverse Proxy server?

Robert: Can you at least tell me the location of where you put this file for the Apache Reverse Proxy software, so I can try to modify the location for the ForeFront Reverse Proxy software? Do you have your ArcGIS Server software on a Windows 2008 Server? If so, did you need to modify any application pool settings to get the mapservices to work properly through the Reverse Proxy server?

I have the crossdomain.xml file on my v9.3.1 ArcGIS Server server at c:\inetpub\wwwroot. The Reverse Proxy server allows this file through in the services rule. The webpage allows the mapservices to be drawn even though a get a 502 error when Fiddler reads in the crossdomain.xml file with the internal server name instead of the external server name (The Reverse Proxy expert says that this error should prevent the mapservice from showing up, but it does any way). I have the crossdomain.xml file on my v10.0 ArcGIS Server server at c:\inetpub\wwwroot. The Reverse Proxy server allows this file through in the services rule. The webpage does not allow the mapservices to be drawn even as I a get a 502 error when Fiddler reads in the crossdomain.xml file with the internal server name instead of the external server name (This is the behavior that the Reverse Proxy expert would expect to see). Any idea why the FlexViewer application works in v9.3.1 and not in v10.0? Am I passing the crossdomain.xml through the correct rule on the Reverse Proxy server?

Robert: These are these lines of text from Fiddler that show crossdomain.xml. Would you understand where this crossdomain is originating from as I do not understand? # Result Protocol Host URL Body Caching Content-Type Process Comments Custom 6 304 HTTP fpdownload.adobe.com /pub/swz/crossdomain.xml 0 text/x-cross-domain-policy iexplore:1356 # Result Protocol Host URL Body Caching Content-Type Process Comments Custom 6 304 HTTP fpdownload.adobe.com /pub/swz/crossdomain.xml 0 text/x-cross-domain-policy iexplore:1356

I searched the entire c-drive of my new v10 ArcGIS Server (AGS) server and I could not find a crossdomain.xml file, but I am still able to see the mapservices when accessing the web app remotely away from the AGS server. How is this possible? If I remove the crossdomain.xml file from my old v9.3.1 AGS server, I can not see the mapservices when accessing the web app remotely. So I ask again, is the crossdomain.xml file still needed in the v10 environment?

What operating system are you running the script from (Windows 2003 Server, Windows 2008 Server, other)? You might want to try calling the python script from a bat file. You might need to specify the full path to the python exe and the python script if you are not using an environmental variable to specify the location of the python exe.

To All ArcGIS Viewer for Flex Developers: I have an ArcGIS Viewer for Flex application that was created in Arc9.3.1sp1 that needed the crossdomain.xml in order to see the mapservices when viewed remotely from the ArcGIS Server (AGS) server. I copied the application files without the crossdomain.xml file to a v10 AGS server. Now I can still see the mapservices. Is the crossdomain.xml file still needed in v10?

I would look to use python for the iteration. You can create the basic one time model and then export the model to a python script. You can then call the python script from a scheduled task or you can call a bat file that calls a python script from a scheduled task. The bat file is especially useful if you want to run more than one python script in a sequence.

You might want to see if you could get ArcGIS v10.0. This capability is nicely built into python scripting with examples and plenty of posts on this subject. If you had 1 ArcGIS v10.0, you could always Save the mxds back to 9.3.1 after fixing the broken links.
