Posting sample data is always a great idea.  For future reference, you can go back and edit your original question to include the attachment and a note that says you attached it rather than creating a new post. ... View more

How is this question different from the one you posted Monday:  https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-pro-questions/arcade-expression/m-p/1716921#M104072 ... View more

Important to review the documentation on this functionality because it touches on some very important asterisks or footnotes when using it:  Disable the Services Directory | ArcGIS Enterprise on Windows and Linux documentation This is not a privacy setting. Disabling the Services Directory does not prevent access to or the ability to discover services and their operations; it only removes the HTML pages for viewing the services and the list of supported operations for each of the services. All services are still fully accessible in JSON format (f=json). Security restrictions on the services are still applicable. ... View more

Using pythonw.exe instead of python.exe eliminates standard communication streams between the parent and child, which commonly applications rely on to pass state and environment information to the spawned children.  I would start by just switching to python.exe.  Since you are running this as a script tool, a console window won't be opened anyways. ...

There are a lot of parameters with Select By Location, it would be helpful if you shared what you are passing the tool, what results you expect, and what you are getting.  The default for Selection Type for Select By Location is "New selection", and that starts fresh against the whole data set.  If you already have records selected and want to select a subset, the "Selection subset from the current selection"  would be the option you want to select. ...

Troubleshooting ArcGIS Enterprise performance problems is challenging enough when you have access to the systems and lots of detailed information, doing it with limited information via a forum is nearly impossible.  There are so many factors that can impact ArcGIS Enterprise site and service performance that one has to be very detailed and specific when sharing information. Saying the machines are " all well spec'ed" doesn't really tell anyone anything.  There are literally hundreds of Azure VM SKUs, and what one person might consider "well spec'd" another might few as barely up for the job.  The comment "shared config on Azure SMB share" is also ambiguous since there are many ways to consume files over SMB in Azure ranging from Azure fully-managed cloud offerings to self-managed infrastructure, and a similar comment goes for saying "EGDB SQL Server." I am not saying the above to nitpick or detract from the situation and question, but to offer context for why it will be difficult to get meaningful feedback from community members.  Even Esri Support has its limits in situations like this because it is focused more around addressing breakage rather than performance matters, and you stated nothing looks overtly broken from the logs.  Maybe Esri Professional Services or some other consulting firm could help if the issue is impactful and important enough the business is willing to spend money on resolving it. I will say that I doubt the 500 mile WAN distance is the primary cause.  That distance add 15 ms give or take to a network round trip, and modern web-based apps running in browsers are meant to tolerate 100s of ms of latency.   I would start by taking the apps out of the equation and performance benchmarking the services they consume outside of the apps.  The more layers you can peel away and isolate, the easier troubleshooting becomes. ...

Are gridcode0 polygons only ever holes in a bigger polygon or can they touch multiple different gridcode1 polygons?  A couple example graphics would be helpful for folks to see because there isn't enough information here for people to give a detailed response. ... View more

Yeah, changing the licensing level from Advanced to Basic was a bit excessive.  It is a trade-off going from Advanced to Standard, but going to Advanced to Basic really devalues the award/reward and personal use program. ... View more

I can't endorse/support this idea enough, any enterprise platform today needs to support multiple identity providers of the same type.   ... View more

@BrittanyLe , something the ArcGIS Pro Early Adopter program staff/teams do is send e-mails directly to former participants when new opportunities open.  That doesn't appear to happen with ArcGIS Enterprise, at least it never has with me.  Although I am regularly on Esri Community and usually see these kinds of announcements, relying solely/mostly on this announcement to notify folks isn't casting the widest net if engagement is what the product team wants during beta development and testing. ...

Are you using esriGeometryAny because you won't know ahead of time whether the geometry will be polygon?  For testing purposes, does the following work? IGeometry geometry = this.jsonConverter.toGeometry( jsonObject, esriGeometryType.esriGeometryPolygon, false, false ); ... View more

There are several registry entries related to licensing, not just AUTHORIZATION_TYPE.  My recommendation would be to delete the following registry keys under HKEY_CURRENT_USER, doing so will reset the CONCURRENT_USE licensing for that user and prompt a user to login to a Portal or arcgis.com to get a Named User license.  AUTHORIZATION_TYPE LICENSE_SERVER SEAT_PREFERENCE SOFTWARE_CLASS_FN All the keys but AUTHORIZATION_TYPE will be recreated for the user and set to default.  Since the AUTHORIZATION_TYPE default has been NAMED_USER for a while now, it likely won't even get re-created. NOTE:  Like anything involving registry changes, either backup the registry key involved or make sure you validate on test machines before deploying. ... View more

If you run into issues with vertical scaling, one area I have seen people run into problems is managing memory, both physical and virtual, at the OS level.  ArcSOC processes have a surprisingly large virtual memory footprint relative to their physical memory use, and when scaling RAM up to accommodate more services, I have seen virtual memory sizing and use become a problem.  Without knowing a lot more details about the application and OS configuration and spec's, I can't really offer any specifics.  ...
