Hi @TrevorH_OPE , Good news ! The patch is now available: https://support.esri.com/en-us/patches-updates/2023/portal-for-arcgis-11-1-sharing-patch ... View more

Hi @ChristopherPawlyszyn , Any update ? Any idea why is the workaround not working in my case ? Thanks ... View more

Thanks @JonEmch  for your reply and announcement.  Regarding your question, I was just trying to evaluate the problem of having patch B installed.  A defect has been identified in the Portal for ArcGIS Enterprise Sites Security Patch or  if you have installed this patch, it is critical to not install any additional Portal for ArcGIS patches or hot fixes, uninstall any Portal for ArcGIS patches including this defective Portal for ArcGIS Enterprise Sites Security Patch, or uninstall or upgrade your Portal for ArcGIS environment or is also causing an impact (I would not get into much details) or I can confirm that we are responding to a significant issue with the Portal for ArcGIS Enterprise Sites Security patch (B on 11.1) on ArcGIS Enterprise 10.8.1, 10.9.1, 11.1 running on Windows. If you have this patch installed, there is tooling coming that will fix this issue. sounded scary.  Hope it's clearer. Thanks ... View more

Many thanks for all your valuable inputs @DavidColey and @JonEmch. So what is the best path to follow if we installed it ? Uninstall or wait for the “tooling” to be made available ? What is the risk of this patch? Any known issue we should be aware of ? thanks ... View more

From the Technical Support website: https://support.esri.com/en-us/patches-updates/2023/portal-for-arcgis-enterprise-sites-security-patch July 6, 2023: The 11.1 version of the Portal for ArcGIS Enterprise Sites Security Patch has been updated to address BUG-000159526 where the patch was installed but not listed as installed in the ArcGIS Enterprise Patch Notification tool. The new setup is named Portal for ArcGIS Enterprise Sites Security Patch B with the B suffix indicating a second build of this patch. The B suffix will appear in the name once the patch is installed. Please download and install the new setup. It is not necessary to uninstall the original patch, the new setup will install and replace the original patch. ... View more

Hi @khairulamri , Many thanks for your message ! Very helpful. Indeed, following the tutorial very closely, I ended up on this thread for the same reason and the step you mention seems to be missing.  ... View more

Thanks for sharing @DavidColey . I have "Portal for ArcGIS 11.1 Enterprise Sites Security Patch B" installed. Is this one also affected by the defect ? Thanks ... View more

Hi @malte, How did you find the issue ? Trying to restore from webgisdr or a tileCache restore ? What error do you get ? Is the workflow suggested by @ChristopherPawlyszyn working on your side ? Thanks, Nicolas ... View more

Hello @ChristopherPawlyszyn, Apologize for my late reply. I have been working hard on trying to make it work. Unfortunately, it does not. I wonder if there is not another BUG on top of the "DIRECT_FILE_BACKUP" one. If, as you suggested, I tried to unregister the datastore and restore it manually using "restoredatastore" command following this article: https://support.esri.com/en-us/knowledge-base/how-to-restore-arcgis-data-store-000021700 I have the following error:   Error encountered: Machine 'https://GISSTORE.COMPANY.COM:2443/arcgis/datastoreadmin' returned an error. 'Failed to restore 'tile cache' data store. Caused by: null'   Unfortunately, using this method, I don't have anything in the logs. Seems like the fact that ArcGIS Server in the DEBUG mode is not taken into account. I tried also several times to restore the full webgisdr backup using the following workflow: - Initializing new VMs from scratch - Installing and configuring ArcGIS Enterprise 11.1 components on each VM using ArcGIS powershell DSC as if it was prod - At the end, the standby ArcGIS Enterprise deployment is functionnal - Restore 11.1 webgisdr done from production with tileCache backup configured as "REPLICATION_BACKUP" (I doubled check the metatadata file and it is a "REPLICATION_BACKUP" tileCache) After that, relational datastore is successfully restored but the tileCache one fails after a while with all the time this error:   { "jobId": "329f74b3-45d2-40f2-a267-599f1941214e", "errorMessage": "Failed to register tile cache data store.\nCaused by: The specified GIS Server site already

Thanks for your reply @ChristopherPawlyszyn. I modified the correct file (I was indeed using from the site-specific location), and tried 4 times: always the same error: { "jobId": "fcfdaa47-d8fd-4993-b292-69cdd3386abc", "errorMessage": "Failed

Many thanks @ChristopherPawlyszyn  for your reply. there is a defect in the new backup/restore logic implemented for the tile cache data store at 11.1 for scene services published at an earlier version In case that help, as mentionned in my first post, in my case, the problem also occurs for sceneLayers published directly at 11.1: Publishing a new scene layer on the production tile cache datastore and restoring it fails as well (it is not restriceted to all scene layers published from previous versions) I just tried your workaround on one of our ArcGIS Enterprise deployment, and the issue remains. I tried updating the datastore configuration on the standby environment as well , but it did not change the result. I tried inspecting files in the webgisdr backup, and tile cache datastores look pretty similar. How can I tell whether webgisdr was exported with "REPLICATION_BACKUP" or "DIRECT_FILE_BACKUP" ?
