Hey there, I was able to connect to @CameronKroeker who helped me get some details on this.  1) "CertificateFile": "" - The location of the .cer file of the ArcGIS Server host. (This is not the .pfx or .cer with a private key, so no password is required) 2) "Thumbprint": "" -This can be found by opening the certificate details pane (open ArcGIS Server host, click on the lock icon, go to Details and scroll all the way down.)    3) "PortalContext": - This is the alias of the web adaptor for portal (https://esri.com/portal) 4) "ServerContext":Same as above but for ArcGIS Server 5) "PasswordFile": "" - This is a path to the encrypted password .txt file. More detaisl on how to generate this can be found here: https://github.com/Esri/arcgis-powershell-dsc/wiki/V3.-Password-Files-and-Encrypted-Deployments 6) "PathToItemInfoFile": "" - This can be left blank This comes straight from the API, created via https://developers.arcgis.com/rest/enterprise-administration/server/iteminfo-upload.htm   As for your last question, you are unable to merge both the configuration and publish actions because they invoke different methods. To Invoke the publish method: Invoke-PublishService -ConfigurationParameterFile.json Versus the Configuration Method: Invoke-ArcGISConfiguration -Mode Install -ConfigurationParameterFile my.json I have given this feedback to Mr. Kroeker, who will update the current sample to include these remarks to make it a bit easier to use. Additionally, he will also ensure that the placeholders get included in the wiki. If you have any issues, please feel free to ask, or better yet post in the github community. ... View more

John,    Thank you for reaching out! This particular deployment type was an experiment that did not continue past 10.5.1. I'm taking a look to see if we can get it removed from the listings.    That being said, this was rolled up into a different project that should be releasing soon (ArcGIS Enterprise on Kubernetes). This is quite a bit bigger than just an ArcGIS Server Image, but nevertheless should be interesting. Stay tuned for more updates on that! ... View more

Hey there Dave,    This is indeed an ArcInfo file: Specifically an ArcInfo Binary Coverage File. Doing some research on this, I found this Technical Article: How To: Convert ArcInfo coverage data to a shapefile using ArcInfo Workstation So newer versions of of Pro and ArcMap wont be able to read ArcInfo files, but with the help of that workflow you may be able to get somewhere with those files. ...

After some research, I found out that this is a known issue BUG-000125384 in a federated ArcGIS Server. This defect was logged for 10.7.1, but it also affects federated ArcGIS Servers in the following versions: 10.7, 10.7.1, and 10.6.1.  The only known workaround for this is to go to ArcMap and use the Distributed Geodatabase tools to unregister the replicas. That or use another unfederated ArcGIS Server which will not have this issue. Please log a case with Esri Support services requesting that your account be added to this defect. ... View more
