Hi all I will check both suggestions next time I am in client site. Please remember that CPU, memory and disk space statistics continue to be monitored without any problem Thanks ... View more

Hi all You used python toolbox where the python code is embedded into the toolbox. I use simple toolbox where the tool is pointing (by reference) to the script (py separate file). Then when you publish you get the same structure where you have a py file with the script. It is easier to handle and you can use IDLE like pycharm that really help you get your code right. Move to simple  py file mean only to copy the execute function into a different file and define new toolbox. You might deleted something by mistake while editing the toolbox. Sometime when there is a strange error the problem is really in one of the previous lines. ... View more

The publish process change the script. You can find the published script under C:\arcgisserver\directories\arcgissystem\arcgisinput (after the changes) Sometime the publishing process add some single quote somewhere (I have no idea why). It is not supported to change the published script directly but if you go there, find the extra quote and delete it you should get it up and running. Have fun   ... View more

Is the first parameter to the tool (ducts) a layer in pro or a FC on disk? It must be a layer in Pro since the spatial join is on a layer and not on the real data. You can always use the Gp tool once and then copy the code from the History window. ... View more

Portal does not have Python env, only server does. The best way to run Python in server is to use GP service but there should be something calling this service. Stand alone python can be run using the server python env. ... View more

If you use the python that comes with server it should use the server license see here: https://enterprise.arcgis.com/en/server/latest/develop/windows/scripting-service-publishing-with-arcpy.htm Note that sometime when you install both Pro and server on the same machine there is a mix between the python installations and it uses the wrong license even if you use the server's python. It better not to install Pro on the server machine. ... View more

 I found the way to do it but it still in testing. First you create and publish a separate script ("child") that do the part that should be executed in parallel. It gets parameters just like any gp service. Then you write a tool that run gp service (use this: https://enterprise.arcgis.com/en/server/10.8/publish-services/windows/using-a-service-in-python-scripts.htm#ESRI_SECTION1_76BCC792830C479298250C5C06652EE6  ). In such a script you can control the number of parallel instances, giving each one a different variable and then check that all instances are finished before continue the father script that aggregate or append the results. the child script should return his private results to the caller somehow (url to the results or string). After the father script was running in Pro I had not problem publishing it as gp service as a "father" service. Running this father service I could see the number of running processes for the "child" service going up when the father script run a few instances of the child in parallel.  ... View more

Hi all My message setting is info and I get NO messages. I am aware of the resources problem. If you use multiprocessing wisely you can limit the number of parallel processes. If you have a server with many cores and each gp service do a lot of work but does not called very often you should be able to get better performance. Currently the tool just ended without calling the function I need to run in parallel. Again, it works on Pro so my code is working. Something in the server env stopping it. Thanks   ... View more

Hi Marco We are going to use local PostgreSQL to keep very few (5-10) layers with about 1-2M features each. We need best performance with drawing and some statistics in dashboards. Can you give a few hints about the configuration assuming that I do not have the time to become an expert in PostgreSQL configuration? Thanks ... View more

Hi Marco Thanks for the information but our configuration are a little different. Both the hosted database and the stand alone Postgres are in the same network segment and have identical network. The question is really did esri done any tricks to make the hosted better then just standard installation of Postgres? Thanks ... View more
