Chris, I am not aware of any method to apply colour or styling to a map service after it is published. The simplest solution is to style the bathymetry in ArcGIS Pro before you publish it. I have rarely consumed WMS services but I beleive it is possible for WMS users to apply their own style to your WMS services. Here is some info on applying an SLD to a WMS service in ArcGIS Desktop. Bernie.

We had a similar problem with a nightly data update script. It worked flawlessly for months but then stopped working in our test environment and a few months later in our production environment. We traced the source of the problem to a change in software for virus scanning. We had to get exceptions to prevent scanning on several folders where our data was being processed. It's probably not the same issue for you but maybe a similar change on your servers. Bernie.

Hello, It is very easy to have a polygon with a NULL attribute field but is it possible to have a polygon feature class and have a feature with NULL geometry? I would like to do this without the complexity of a versioned database or a related table? This would be useful for parcel data when a parcel ID is retired - for example when two adjacent parcels are amalgamated and one or both parcel ID's are retired and replaced by a new parcel ID. Our parcel data is managed by our Land Registry Office. We receive daily copies of the parcel data as a simple polygon featrue class but it only includes all of the active parcel IDs. Many government services reference the parcel ID. It is a problem when someone tries to search our parcel map service with a retired parcel ID. There is no way for our service to indicate the user is searching for a retired parcel ID. Does anyone have a suggestion? Thanks, Bernie.

Mark, A Dedicated map or feature service will respond better than a shared map service. If there is a lot of activity on the service it should definitely be dedicated. Increasing the instances may help, say min1 and max 4. I recently read that max instances should not be more than number of CPU cores + 1. You should also make sure any attributes that you are searching on are indexed and your related table has the appropriate indices as well. I believe a map service will perform better than a feature service but if you have complex symbology and labelling on the map service it will make the service slower. You should Google and read for some more tips - https://t.ly/dZjV Good luck, Bernie.

JC, We had a similar problem when using our geocoder from WAB apps. It might be helpful with your situation. For example with this app - https://geonb.snb.ca/geonb/ If you type "Cottage Lane" without pressing <enter> into the search bar (top right corner) you will see a drop-down list of condidates appear. New Brunswick has many communities with a street called "Cottage Lane". Selecting an item from this list will zoom you to one of the results but not necessarily the one you selected. However, if you type "Cottage Lane <enter>" into the search bar you will always zoom to the location of the result that you selected. We are running ArcGIS Server 10.7.1 Good luck, Bernie.

Hello, If this only happens the first time the services are accessed each morning the problem could be that all of the services have zero instances running and the server cannot activate an instance before the timeout expires. What are the min and max instance setting for each service? How many Arcsoc.exe are running in Task Manager early in the morning? If all your min instances are set to zero that could be your problem. Try setting min instances to 1 for the most popular services. All idle services will be shut down after 30 minutes (1800 seconds) with the default publishing settings for an image service. UPDATE: I would not recommend publishing all of your image services as shared instances. You should evaluate your services to determine which ones are used most frequently. Those services should use a dedicated instance. The services that are used infrequently can use a shared instance. I use this python script to generate statistics for my maps services. It should also work for image services: Bernie.

Jay, I have not tried this but here is a suggestion. Create a URL for the REST API that will extract all of the records and then embed that URL in the Item Info page of the feature service. This may give you some of the functionality you need. Here is a sample URL for a wilde fire feature service I found on AGOL (contains 115 records): https://sampleserver6.arcgisonline.com/arcgis/rest/services/Wildfire/FeatureServer/0/query?where=1%3D1&outfields=*&f=geojson Bernie.

Ryan, I beleive the answer here is Portal. Publish the feature service in Portal then only the named users with access to the feature service in Portal can have access. But they will still be able to consume the feature service in multiple ways with different apps. I don't use Portal so I am really speaking off the cuff. Bernie.

Peter, We publish many map viewers with the AGOL hosted WAB. We take the AGOL URL for the WAB app and iframe it into a bare bones html page that is hosted under our domain name geonb.snb.ca. This allows us to include our Google Analytics code with the WAB app. Have a look at the html source for this page for an example - https://geonb.snb.ca/geonb/index.html. This should work for story maps too. Bernie. GeoNB

That sounds like a networking issue. Couldn't you setup rules on your proxy server to redirect multiple domains to a single ArcGIS Enterprise install? I rely on our network team for stuff like this so I can't provide more detail. Bernie. GeoNB.

Lena, We have used Esri professional services to give us some guidance on a past upgrade. We should chat off-line and I can share our experience. You can reach out to me on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/berniejconnors/ Bernie.

Lori, I don't have an answer for why the option for attachments disappears when you change the symbology. But let me tell you what we do when we have attachments or downloads related to a feature. We store the full URL as an attribute for each feature. In a custom pop-up we use html to format the URL attribute as a hyperlink: The yellow highlighted area in the image above shows that we are using an attribute "FILE_URL" to create a hyperlink to download a lidar point cloud file. This link could easily be a PDF or JPG image. The app is public and you can check it out here - http://geonb.snb.ca/li/ I hope this helps with your problem. Bernie.

With AGOL you can publish features services but you cannot publish map services. Map services give you more control over the cartography which in my experience is most important if you need to have greater control over labeling of lines and polygons. Bernie.

Jake, Have you tried System Log Parser? It creates a nicely formatted Excel report with more info than the tool you mentioned. Bernie.

Holly, The only reason the tile cache would be larger is if you are creating more tiles. I suspect the raster tile tool was using an oversized x/y extent to estimate the size of the tile cache. Its great that just starting over again fixed the problem. Bernie.
