We are experiencing slow increases in memory usage on our ArcGIS Monitor VM. Once it reaches ~75% memory usage the paging file usage for that VM also slowly begins to increase as well. If this is left unattended the Monitor instance becomes unstable, crashes and requires a reboot. Once restarted the application stack restores correctly and behaves normally. The resolution to it is to ensure we reboot the Monitor VM every fortnight or so. It is highly likely this issue is due to my infrastructure environment and/or custom extensions we are calling from the app. Has anyone else encountered similar issues?

In a web map, when you add a hosted feature layer or a map service the following icons appear (on mouse hover) under their content pane entry: Legend Attribute table Change style Filter Cluster (hosted only) Analysis An image service only has: Legend Table Filter It would be beneficial to the user experience if this was standardised somewhat - or at least be configurable. We had a user request for "image display" to pop up by default so that it is highlighted to end users as a capability.

Our understanding was that the process consuming CPU is converting the spatial type of the data being queried from ArcGIS Datastore to what is received by the browser/client. This is why the issue is only seen for large, complex geometry datasets.

ArcSoc Optimizer is a great extension that has an obvious use case and role within a large-scale GIS deployment. Before I implement ArcSoc Optimizer for our 10.7.1 Enterprise & Monitor environments, I wanted to confirm whether this is planned to be available in Monitor 10.8.1? More broadly, are there other options available for auto-scaling services planned within the core product?

Are there any options available for configuring "operational hours" with regards to email notifications or Monitor in general? We have standard alerts in place for our GISs and these behave as we would like during business hours. However, outside of business hours the infrastructure teams may perform maintenance or outages. These processes cause a significant amount of alerts due to known causes (e.g. network hardware maintenance). Ideally we could set Monitor to only report on issues from 6am to 6pm.

Investigating and programatically handling administrative changes to a GIS can be an awkward process. If administrative changes were able to trigger a webhook then this could be plugged into a logging mechanism or change management process. In the same way that /item/ can trigger a webhook, /portaladmin/ should as well. The end goal of such a webhook would be the ability to write all administrative changes to a file. This record can then be used for diagnostic purposes in the event that a major outage occurs. Current mechanisms would require parsing through web server and application logs.

After successfully upgrading from 10.6.1 ArcGIS Enterprise to 10.7.1 we are left with a sizable amount of data in D:\arcgisportal\upgrade-backup\10.6.1. Can this directory be safely deleted now it is some time after the 10.6.1 - 10.7.1 upgrade? Should it not self-delete during the upgrade process?

As per the documentation here, item usage is only available with ArcGIS Online. If this could be extended to ArcGIS Enterprise that would be extremely useful. Item owners would then be able to generate BI rather than requesting it from GIS administrators.

One issue you will hit is any reference to https:// arcgis.mybiz.io/arcgis/mydataservice will now be broken. These references will occur externally and internally to the GIS. The only permanent resolution to this is to programatically fix these references, but that is no easy task. I believe 10.7.1 now allows you to do this manually in the item details page so hopefully your GIS doesn't have too many items. Or, set up redirect logic in your web tier.
