Is replacing the arcgisserver/directories and arcgisserver/config-store folders with the same folders from another server that you want to, in essence, "replicate" supported?  For example, my IT department wants to rebuild one of my server, and I was hoping I could just copy those directories with my old configuration somewhere, reinstall the server software and create a new site, and then overwrite the new arcgisserver directories with my old ones to have all the map services and configurations retained?  Is this possible?  Are there specific steps I have to follow?

I've seen several threads trying to address an issue regarding using the identity manager to access secured services on Server 10.1 and getting an error "Unable to access the authentication service" http://forums.arcgis.com/threads/74598-Identity-Manager-for-server-10.1 http://forums.arcgis.com/threads/63690-Secure-Services-over-https None of these have been able to properly resolve the error.  Here's my problem.  In Chrome and Firefox, the app works.  The identity manager prompts the user for credentials, and once those credentials are accepted the map service displays the data.  Same app in IE 8: the identity manager prompts the user for credentials, but then returns an error, "unable to access the authentication service" I have followed the instructions in http://forums.arcgis.com/threads/74598-Identity-Manager-for-server-10.1, adding the relevant lines to proxy.config and the init() function in the app.  Can someone definitively resolve why this is happening? I'm using JS API 3.4 or 3.5, all ArcGIS resources, Esri APIs, basemaps, CSS files, web pages are accessed through https (in fact IE doesn't like to send un/pw over http and generates an error).  In server security, the user store is windows domain, role store is built-in, authentication tier is GIS server, and authentication mode is tokens.  It works in Chrome and Firefox, so nothing seems wrong with the configuration!  What do I need to do to have it work in IE8 too! Help! ... View more

I have never understood how to implement a paging infoWindow using the Popup class in any of the infoWindows?  Now that popups are the default infoWindow for v 3.4 of the JS API, I was wondering if someone could post some code on how to ensure that the infoWindow / popup will have paging options when click on a location with multiple markers.  Thanks! ...

I have about 5 Python scripts running through Windows Task Scheduler (2008 R2) - they run at varying intervals but will occasionally kick off at the same time (for instance if one is on a 10 min internal, the other 30, and the other 60).  They operate on separate feature classes in the same file geodatabase, performing a combination of projections and appends.  I regularly but not predictably (or reproducibly) get errors relating to an inability to access a certain feature class (even though it exists).  Sometimes there is a lock, sometimes the script says it just can't find it (even though it is most certainly there and no other script is operating on the feature class).  Anyway, is there any known issues with multiple python scripts running at once on different feature classes in the same geodatabase.  I can't for the life of me reproduce or figure out why these errors are occurring (granted they only occur about 7% of the time, but still, on 10 minute intervals this ends of being a lot of errors). ...
