Sure @RussRoberts - its part of a feature layer collection. I'll set it public temporarily and I will DM it to you. If you could let me know when you interact with it that would be great

Hello - as of the June update, it appears that vector style point symbols are not drawing completely 'stacked', where at least one style point is offset from the rest: This is a Sewer Vault from the UN symbology published as a hosted feature layer to arcgisonline. At publish time from Pro 3.1.2, the symbology option 'use symbol types with all clients' is un-checked. Up until the update, this offset did not appear in Map Viewer.

When you say: "We have changed the the credentials to the connection is why we are overwriting." Have you tried changing the item owner to match the credentials? You can't overwrite layers you don't own. At least that's been my experience, as admin in portal or online.

Well, to me its about your editing workflows. If you are only going to be editing your portal layers as portal-hosted feature layers where edits to layers aren't coming from SDE, then you could set up the collaboration type 'as-copies' and the mode as 'send'. This way, the edits will appear in your AGOL host at whatever interval you define. That being said, if I were setting up 'as-copies' collaborations, it would be because I want to support two-way editing of my feature layers. But again, it really depends on the scenario: https://enterprise.arcgis.com/en/portal/latest/administer/windows/understand-collaborations.htm I also think that layers as-copies requires more management overhead: https://enterprise.arcgis.com/en/portal/latest/administer/windows/about-sharing-feature-layer-data-as-copies.htm If you are worried about the agol usage history, delete the layer from portal. Then set up a send-receive collaboration with the layer from agol 'as-copies'. When the workspaces sync, the agol layer will be sent to portal as a new copy. But the portal copy won't retain the agol usage, it can't but the usage history will still show in the agol 'source'.

I can report an update: I generated my missing minimum level 8 tile bundle, but that had no effect on the overview page. The overview page still does not show in portal, and the Settings page remains greyed out. Probably should have mentioned the settings page grey-out at the beginning of this thread

Hmm, I'm not seeing any job errors for getting the cache info in Monitor or in the Manager logs for the Hosted server. I am seeing that my minimum cache level did not generate: I should have a bundle at level 8 but I don't. I generated the cache 'on-server' through pro 3.1.1 when I pushed the layer up as hosted tile layer. The cache directory . . . \directories\arcgiscache\Hosted_EffectiveFloodUpdateTile\EffectiveFloodUpdateTile\_alllayers shows that the level is missing as well. So maybe because the level is defined for the tile scheme but missing is what is hanging portal overview.... but again this doesn't sound like your case @RobStauder

Good morning. @ChristopherPawlyszyn was able to supply some internal postgres command options that enabled me to remove these orphan items from the portals' internal postgres gwdb database. I was then able to successfully complete a webgis dr backup. As a support item, I was asked not to publicize the method for removing orphaned items as it is a bit risky. If others encounter this issue, I'd suggest reaching out to support.

‎06-08-2023

Well, I spoke too soon... This morning the same behavior has appeared again: The console log shows no errors, and all of items in the network tab come back as 200 so who knows . . .

ok, so the fix wont be in this release, got it.

Hi Ken - When you ask - 'Is there a way to set up or modify a collaboration sync so that a new item on the guest portal updates a pre-existing item on the host portal? " - The short answer is yes, but it depends on the type of collaboration you want to use and that's based on your data update workflows. For us, editors update SDE layers, those layers are extracted to a file gdb each week. The file gdb layers are shared to our enterprise portal as hosted feature layers from the arcpro sharing module / api. Each week python scripts overwrite the service definition files, updating the hosted feature layers in portal. The layers are then shared to groups that make up the guest portal workspaces for by-reference collaborations, where our guest portal sends the layers to our agol host. On our agol host, the groups (workspaces) that receive the content from portal are shared with Open Data, and in this way we update data in Portal, it is seen in Open Data. In fact, once the layers are in place, the by-reference collaborations don't even need to sync in order to see data updates to the layers in the host org because they are just pointing back to our Portals' hosted server site. There is an 'as-copies' method too that works best with send-receive types of workflows to keep the data updated. In this case, you would share a view of the agol layer with an Open Data group.... Hope this helps- David

Hi @ChristopherPawlyszyn - thanks for the feedback. Yes, I have 2 orphaned items in my content. One is for a hosted feature layer view that no longer exists, and one is for a reference to a geocoder from my federated site. Both items were incorrectly deleted, but in the past (at 10.9.1) the backup would complete with warnings. Here is the warning: ..... The following Portal for ArcGIS has been backed up successfully: Url: https://myorg.net/portal During the export operation, some items could not be exported because they appear to be missing from the content directory. Check the portal logs and review the Why do I receive an error about a missing item when creating a backup of my portal? section in the Common Problems and Solutions documentation for more information. ..... The items do appear in my content - i.e. ..../sharing/rest/content/users/.... as: Items ID - Title Owner Type Size Uploaded 19e427fb218442c2be32f77be701f019 - null me_portal null 66 Nov 20, 2018 3d30e4cc6f8c4fb5b0b41dcdb7bec1e5 - null me_portal null 0 Jul 15, 2021 but like the warning says, they are missing. When I try to remove the items via the rest api, this is the json return: { "results": [ { "itemId": "19e427fb218442c2be32f77be701f019", "success": false, "error": { "code": 500, "message": "Unable to delete item: https://myorg.net/agsfed/admin/GpServices/ScpaWebMap/GPServer" } } ] } { "results": [ { "itemId": "3d30e4cc6f8c4fb5b0b41dcdb7bec1e5", "success": false, "error": { "code": 500, "message": "Unable to delete item: https://myorg.net/server/rest/services/Hosted/BusStopView2/FeatureServer" } } ] } So yes, they are truly orphaned . . . . Thanks again, David

Thanks for the feedback @RussRoberts To be clear, are you saying the issue won't be repeated in the upcoming release or that the fix won't be included in the upcoming release? Thanks, David

Hello - When ever I set any line features (hosted or referenced) to automatically adjust the width in the map viewer, the line symbols no longer display in the Map Viewer Legend. This unfortunately carries over to any Instant App or ExB legend as well. Thanks, David

Hello - I've posted on this before, the webgisdr utility failure at 11.0 due to a federated server web adaptor name 'agsfed' containing at least one letter in the word 'a-d-m-i-n'. I am happy to report that issue seems to have been resolved. However, the utility is still failing, or rather, it is completing but not producing an output file: D:\AeScripts\ArcEntAdminTools\webgisdr111\webgisdr>webgisdr --export --file D:\AeScripts\ArcEntAdminTools\webgisdr111\webgisdr\myfullsitebkup.properties ================================================== Starting the WebGIS DR utility. ================================================== The configuration and base backup time in the current Web GIS ------------------------------------------------------------- Portal: https://myorg.net/portal at 5/23/23 5:47 PM | |-- Hosting Server: https://myorg.net/server at 5/23/23 5:47 PM | | | |-- Relational Data Store: https://mydatastoreFQDN:2443/arcgis | |-- Federated Server: https://myorg.net/agsfed at 5/23/23 5:47 PM Starting the backup process with the WebGIS DR utility.

Its a file share type backup, all of my shares privileges are in place, Java Home environment is in place.... Thanks, David

I suspect this is related to the group sharing issue first reported here: https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-enterprise-portal-questions/portal-for-arcgis-11-1-can-no-longer-share-items/td-p/1287662 but I am no longer able to 'change owner' of portal users' items from user to user, where those users role privileges would normally allow them to own items - e.g. changing owner from one publisher to another. I have to make the user that I want to take ownership an Administrator, then I can change ownership. I then have to go back and change the user role back to Publisher (or custom role)
