Look at this way: in Pro, you're not publishing to your server: you're publishing to Portal, which stores the service on your server for you. This is a very different authentication "pipes and levers" workflow versus publishing from Arc, which is why I suspect a cert issue. Another test is, can you publish a hosted feature service? If so, then 100% a federation issue.  ... View more

Can you create another user in Portal, put them in the publishing group associated with that server, log in as that user, same error? If so, you have a federation issue related to trust that I think will need to be solved by tech support, since I suspect it involves SSL cert issues.  ... View more

In addition to checking your video card driver (which I have a problem with, Arc Map didn't need IT to take time out of their overworked schedule to update video card drivers with each version), are you sending the crash reports in? They do get attention. Ultimately though, this is going to be resolved by tech support.  ... View more

You will have to provide more (many more) details about your Portal configuration. Are you publishing a hosted feature service to the data store, a service to a federated server? From the screen shot, it appears as though you have been publishing directly to the GIS server in Arc Map, sadly, Pro does not allow you to publish to un-federated servers ArcGIS Pro Publish Services To ArcGIS Server. If the server is federated, is it federated with fine-grained permissions and you are not a member of the publishing group in portal? What version of Ptl, Server, SQL Database type and version? ...

I can't possibly imagine a scenario where running all 3 on the same machine would ever work anywhere outside of a test lab. Trust me on that one. with 12 editors and 30 mappers, you'll be looking at 100% CPU utilization 24/7, and will not be able to spawn very many service instances. The Web Adapter could basically run on an i386 with 48k of RAM, IMHO, but Portal is very hardware greedy. If you're going to get into load balancing, I suggest looking at a hardware solution.  ...

Where' is your "Relational" (DB) machine in this stack? If that is a 4th machine that you didn't mention, then Option 2 will give you the best performance, which is similar to how I deployed: 10 Arc GIS Servers, 3 SQL/SDE Instances, 1 WA, albeit  Portal is in a bit of a different location. Regarding the question about the data store, based on your use of the word "Relational", you don't need one, as the data store is a black box where you're hosted feature services go and there is nothing relational about them. Hosted feature services aren't for everyone, you'll do nicely with a relational database driving services hosted on your two Federated Servers.  However, if you think you'll grow (as I knew I would), go with Option 3. Adding more GIS servers to the stack is cheap, easy, and fast; re configuring your Portal and WA to be on separate machines AFTER you deployed them to one will be a hours-days-long tech support case. Plus you get a dedicated host to deploy other web apps (e.g WA Builder) as well as dedicated hardware to overcome the hit your going to take for SSL. Option 1 is very unrealistic and will cause all kinds of https problems and would only work if you doubled the number of servers and turned into a high availability solution.   Back to Option 2, here's how I "sorta" do it: I reserve a pool of GIS Servers just for editors. You get a map and feature service when you publish, but no one connects to the map services when they're making maps, just the editors connect to the feature service when they're editing data. I need for the editors to have reliable confidence that stuff's going to work so they stay out of my office complaining about feature services not working. So in my isolation model, valuable CPU cores, memory, and a hard limit on service  instances (Pooling) can meet Editor Demands. Think about the Sync services on the "Editor" GIS Server, whenever you do offline sync, the service gets a workout. If the editors can't edit, there's nothing for the mappers to map. So this is your first GIS server For my mappers, I publish and sync just map (and tile) services to another pool of GIS servers (a variety of other platforms, AGOL, Mapbox, Carto, etc...) where I have to spend less time worrying about performance and balancing instances. There are a few rare instances where I have editors and mappers hitting the same REST endpoint (e.g sensitive data). This is your second GIS server. A variation of this is to put all of your "map stuff" on AGOL, and use the two GIS servers for Feature Services (Editors).  ... View more

...However, in 2.2 you can "disconnect your self" by going into Connection properties and removing what you "think" is your connection (among many, in my case, I guessed right). There needs to be a very clear connect and disconnect feature.  ... View more

Related, ENH-000114150 [Enhancement] Provide DBMS connectivity error notification when drawing in ArcGIS Pro session after the connection has been terminated to underlying enterprise geodatabase.

No, the only other thing I've used for SQL benchmarking is GitHub - clinthuffman/PAL: Performance Analysis of Logs (PAL) tool , but not for this issue. TOAD looks like it has some cost to it, which would take about 97 years for me to get through the approval pipes and levers.  ... View more

Kory Kramer‌ since we last talked about this, what I've learned is you have to remove the SDE connection from your project and re-add it for the the functionality to "kick-in".  ... View more

I'm going to venture a guess that Pro, by design, will not recognize 3rd party "cloud" storage Windows Explorer extensions. As a workaround, try making that "cloud" folder it's own drive letter.  How to Map a Folder to a Drive Letter in Windows: 11 Steps  ... View more

That's not an enhancement....having to insert a new layout and re-position, re-insert, re-do all your elements is neither a solution or a work around. Changing layouts is a pretty common task. E.g just yesterday someone wanted me to plot their map, only they had done it in the default 8.5X11 layout. Press a button, look at that, Arch E  layout, I have to change nothing.  See below, I can very quickly change layout, not have to change my extent, or reposition map elements.  ... View more
