Hi @GarimaTiwari   I am trying to follow this practice. I have a slpk file of 149GB, located in a folder on my server. I managed to, following python to register the folder where the file is located as DataStore in the Portal and in ArcGIS Server as well. However, when I go to the publishing step, it doesn't recognize the cache_id I'm putting in. Below is an example of what I am putting in service configuration and I am not sure if it is what is expected: ## Step 4a. Create a dictionary for your service configuration service_conf= { "type": "SceneServer", "serviceName": "Mesh", "properties": { "pathInCachedStore" : "/fileShares/Geodata/filetopublish/Production_6_ESRI_total.slpk", "cacheStoreId": 67df774917f34228b38e658e5f229576, } } service_conf In the "pathInCachedStore" parameter I'm putting the path to the folder where my slpk file that I want to publish is located. In the "cacheStoreId" parameter I am putting id of my datastore that I consulted through the ArcGIS Serve Admin directory. Can you tell me what I am configuring wrong? ... View more

Nevermind. Found the answer at the bottom of https://enterprise.arcgis.com/en/portal/latest/install/windows/installing-portal-for-arcgis.htm. The heading was misleading because I don't have multiple cards or DNS names, but it worked. ... View more

Hello @JonathanQuinn ! Was there a solution for this Problem? We also have this issue. Shared Location Property looks like this: SHARED_LOCATION=\\\\MYSHARE\\shared Export is no Problem, but Import. Servers and File Share are on a Azure VM. Thank you in Advance! ... View more

I know this post is a few years old, but I imagine that much of the discussion holds true; From what I understand reading the discussion above, the Join Site method is pretty insufficient for an environment where there's one live server, but it's federated with Portal? In that case, the webgisdr method would need to be used? ... View more

Agree on this. Just gave an example.  ... View more

There is no easy answer here as it is entirely dependent on the use case, how much "work" a single user will put on the infrastructure and how much "work" is simultaneous. The software responds well to vertical scaling so I would aim low and increase vCPU and RAM as needed. There is plenty of doco from Esri on these topics, i.e., https://enterprise.arcgis.com/en/server/latest/deploy/windows/data-storage-considerations-for-an-arcgis-server-site.htm or https://enterprise.arcgis.com/en/server/latest/publish-services/windows/tuning-and-configuring-services.htm. As an example, I would not be providing any apps or maps that use the feature service for visualisation. You should offload that to a map service as it will be more performant. You should also push as much work as possible onto hosted feature layers as these are more performant across the platform. ... View more

Ditto. Common feedback and best practice is to not use shared instances for imagery services. Also, you may want to look into how ArcGIS Server is accessing the underlying data at a protocol level (e.g. SMB). If this issue is occurring daily then there may be a session timeout/cache issue. ... View more

It is also a security concern (low) as it enables a user to confirm/deny the existence of an account in the external identity store (i.e. LDAP).   https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-enterprise-portal-questions/disable-password-reset-functionality/m-p/1086042#M11358 ... View more

It was absolutely the windows firewall, which was on by default. Not quite sure how I missed that, but adding rules to allow the required port numbers on portal and server VMs to the windows firewall resolved it. Note that no other NSG rules were required as by default, VMs in the same VNet can communicate on all ports. Thanks for the responses. The powershell Test-NetConnection tip is also a useful one. ...
