I have just completed my upgrade from 11.0  / 10.9.1 to 11.1 and can tell you that through Monitor I can now see we have increased the w3wp process count on the web server from 2 to 5.   We have a distributed deployment on Windows Sever 2016 VMs all 8-core, 32Gb, with the exception of the web server which is at 8-core 16Gb. The web server currently hosts 3 web adaptors for Portal, Hosting Server Site(2-machine), and a Federated Server Site(2-machine).  I am assuming at 11.1 the additional components for web adaptor - the hosting bundle and web deploy 3.6 are spinning up w3wp processes but I don't know.  I completed the upgrade Saturday 5/21  9 pm EDT, so today is the first weekday under load. ...

Hi Jamie, long time no hear from.  Sounds like you have basically orphaned the gp service.  For the federated servers' directories folder, for the gp service do the service items still exist in the .....directories\arcgisjobs\gpservices folder?  I still have some old gp services showing up there, like an extract data task, like this: L:\directories\arcgisjobs\gpservices\extractdatatask_gpserver ...

Yes @ZachBodenner - I would say you are reading that exactly right.   In fact, for my impending upgrade this weekend, I had our system admins do exactly that - increase my D:\ drive space to accommodate the 2.5x free space ... View more

Although there are MANY changes and requirements, updating ssl certificates and re-configuring user / identity stores is not among them.  BUT, this how-to document https://support.esri.com/en-us/knowledge-base/how-to-upgrade-to-arcgis-enterprise-11-x-000029452 recommends not directly upgrading directly to 11.1 from releases more than 2 versions behind, and you are 3 versions behind.  If you can do an interim upgrade to 10,9.1 first I would do so . . . ...

You're not getting the error too, are you @NicolasGIS ? ... View more

Ok thanks for the feedback on this @MarleyGeddes  - I plan to keep an eye on this and other issues as well through the next week or so . . . ... View more

Hmm, thanks for pursuing this @NicolasGIS  - @MarleyGeddes , do you (or anyone else @BillFox ) know if sharing items to groups through the ArcGIS Api for Python or, in the case of feature layer writes and overwrites via sddraft + sd files via the ArcPy sharing module is impacted at 11.1 - or is it just through the Content or item details pages?  For example, using the api I update sharing all the time:   try: portItems = gis.content.search(query="owner:myusername_portal", item_type="Feature Layer", sort_field="title", sort_order="asc", max_items=5000) for portItem in portItems: if (portItem.title == "CPBoundary"): portFL = FeatureLayerCollection.fromitem(portItem) print (portItem.title) portFL.manager.update_definition(updateDict) #portItem.update(item_properties=itemProperties) #,data=None, thumbnail=None, metadata=None) portItem.share(everyone=False,org=False,groups="mylonggroupid") print(portFL.properties) message = message + "\n" + "1. " + (portItem.title) + " Sync Enabled: " + str(portFL.properties.syncEnabled) except Exception: # If an error occurred, print line number and error message import traceback, sys tb = sys.exc_info()[2] e = sys.exc_info()[1] print(e.args[0]) print ("Line %i" % tb.tb_lineno) message = message + "\n" + "Line %i" % tb.tb_lineno message = message + "\n" + str(e)     or use the sharing module for overwrites:   try: portal = arcpy.SignInToPortal("https://host.org.net/portal", "myusername_portal", "mypassword") aprx = arcpy.mp.ArcGISProject('C:/ArcProProjects3x/PortalUpdates/PortalUpdates.aprx') for m in aprx.listMaps("Facility Layers"): print("Map: " + m.name) for lyr in m.listLayers(): if lyr.name == 'CurrentCodeViolationPoint': lyrList = [] lyrList.append(m.listLayers(lyr.name)[0]) print(lyr.name) stageSDDraft(m, lyr.name, "The Code Violation Point layer contains various types of property, building, zoning, resource protection and other code compliance issues for . . .", lyrList,"The Code Violation Point layer contains various types of property, building, zoning, resource protection and other code compliance issues for. . . ", "ServiceSafetyLayers","Planning,Services","FacilitySafety") print(lyr.name + " Draft Created") arcpy.StageService_server('C:/ArcProProjects3x/PortalUpdates/FacilitySafety/' + lyr.name + '.sddraft', 'C:/ArcProProjects3x/PortalUpdates/FacilitySafety/' + lyr.name + '.sd') print(lyr.name + " Service Staged") arcpy.UploadServiceDefinition_server('C:/ArcProProjects3x/PortalUpdates/FacilitySafety/' + lyr.name + '.sd', 'My Hosted Services', "","","","","","OVERRIDE_DEFINITION","SHARE_ONLINE","PRIVATE", "NO_SHARE_ORGANIZATION","MyGroup") #Code Enforcement and Planning Group print(lyr.name + " Service Uploaded") message = message + "\n" + "2.

No, you clearly can't permanently set to 'All Group Members' and neither could I.  Geez, I don't think I've this many upgrade issues with a release before.  From custom print services not working: https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-enterprise-questions/arcgis-enterprise-11-1-is-not-printing-features/m-p/1286563#M35841 to the hosting server not communicating with the datastore: https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-enterprise-questions/missing-hosted-feature-classes-after-upgrading-to/m-p/1286278#M35815 to your web adaptor issue: https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-enterprise-portal-questions/arcgis-enterprise-11-1-oauth-regression/m-p/1284741#M13466 to Data Clients not behaving: https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-enterprise-extensibility-questions/enterprise-sdk-11-upgraded-soe-now-ruturns/m-p/1287407#M334 to loss of access to Microsoft Azure Active Directory user store: https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-enterprise-questions/sign-in-screen-error-when-accessing-portal-via/m-p/1287099#M35868 to bad behavior of  the WMS Services (although there is now a patch for this): https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-enterprise-questions/strange-behaviours-on-wms-service-from-arcgis/m-p/1285512#M35786 I am scheduled to do my upgrade this weekend but I think I have to pull the plug on that.  I have no webgisdr tool because my Federated site name 'agsfed' contains letters that appear in the word 'admin' and so it won't run. I have to depend purely on a snapshot and content backup if anything goes wrong. And it sure seems like LOTS of things are going wrong.   ... View more

Hi @NicolasGIS  - do you think this in anyway has anything to do with what you did here: https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-enterprise-portal-questions/arcgis-enterprise-11-1-oauth-regression/m-p/1284741#M13466 with the web adaptor and proxy issues you encountered?  And this is probably obvious, but did you try toggling the 'who can share' setting and then try save again? @JalesM  @JeffSmith  ...

Interesting @ChristopherPawlyszyn , thank you for the feedback.  This may not be relevant, but I have been working in a mixed deploy since the 11.0 release.  Our Portal, hosting site, and datastores are at 11.0, but we had to leave the federated site at 10.9.1 as we had to support a couple of services with Geometric networks and so had to have the ArcMap runtime.   With the upgrade to UN 6 we cam finally move everything forward to 11.1   ... View more

Yes thanks @JalesM   Yeah I will not open a support ticket for this.  We're upgrading because we have to move forward with the UN at version 6, and for documented bugs that 11.1 fixes...  Still this federated site is a mature install, it's supported Server and ImageServer since 10.6.  So this will mark it's 9th overall upgrade - but if this issue persists at 11.1, then I'll open a support ticket. ...

Ok thanks for the update @JeffSmith - yes, we could not just switch to the Java version of the WA.  That being said, we use f5 for our front end traffic cop - it does no load balancing for us.  Still, I do not think that, by default this is an issue for f5 front ends. ... View more

Hello - I posted on this topic late last year: https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-enterprise-questions/arcgis-server-11-0-directory-traversal/td-p/1219790 I was able to resolve the issue by re-starting the data store service after applying the traverse patch.  But it is interesting that you are seeing the errors before applying the patch.  I did not see these webhook errors until after applying the patch. ...

Hi all - @JeffSmith , I don't see how anyone in a Windows shop can just switch over the java edition web adaptor, so what does this mean in practical terms?  Does this mean that developer edition apps like EM and or the WAB that are registered with Portal at 11.1 cannot login? Or does this mean that Portal-hosted WABs, EBs and Instant Apps, if not shared with 'Everyone' cannot be accessed? I have the upgrade scheduled for this weekend and am trying to run down any of the gotchas that have appeared in GeoNet thus far ... View more
