The only time I've seen the hosting server list is greyed out is when the certificate isn't trusted. Portal makes a request for the data store items via the Portal's internal proxy. If Portal doesn't trust the certificate, then the request fails and the drop down is greyed out, as it can't get a response that indicates the federated Server has a registered relational Data Store. The network traffic will capture the 403, indicating that the URL is not trusted, and the Portal logs will record an error about the certification path not being trusted.  The certificate itself could be valid, sure. I typically use a certificate issued from our domain certificate authority. It's 100% valid, but the Portal will never trust that certificate by default because it's not in the trust store. If you use the self-signed certificate, then it's trusted by Portal by default. If you see this, check the network traffic, and you see that a) the request for the data store items is a 200 and the request body contains the information for the registered relational ArcGIS Data Store, then yes, I could see this as a bug. ...

Thanks for the update.  For the views, yes, there's a bug regarding that. It's fixed at 10.7. As for the other issues, were there any logs that described why it was unavailable? What was the behavior? The DR tool does preserve multi-machine sites, so that shouldn't have been a problem as long as the machines were healthy to begin with. It's not so much the source, or where you backup from, it's more so the target, or where you restore. If that has two or more machines, they are preserved during the restore. References to machines in the backup don't matter. For the sharing problem, it sounds like sharing permissions on some layers weren't honored? Is that right? All of that is stored in the internal database, which is backed up and restored, so I'm not sure why you'd have to fix any sharing problems after a restore. ... View more

It expects the data store items to already exist. You could look into the AddDataStoreItem function, but you'd need the .sde files unless you're going to create them on the fly based on the connection string information within the layer. ... View more

There's no problem with having Server and Data Store on the same machine as Portal. Are you seeing this on primary or standby? Do you see anything in the Event Viewer? ... View more

Hey David Coley‌, sounds like you were in luck in having backups, (or not luck, just following best practice ). I'm not sure why the hosted service lost it's configuration. A similar problem was resolved a number of releases ago. If everything is on the same machine, setting the SHARED_LOCATION to the C:\ drive path will work. If you're distributed, which you mentioned, it needs to be a shared location that all machines running the software can reach. Let me know how it goes. ... View more

Toutes mes excuses pour la traduction potentiellement mauvaise, mais j'espère que Google fait du bon travail. La planification de la capacité est certainement une science et nécessite généralement une visite sur site de certains types de services professionnels. Cependant, 600 services représentent beaucoup pour un déploiement isolé. Outre les besoins évidents en ressources (principalement en RAM), vous rencontrerez un problème de taille de segment de bureau non interactif. J'ai entendu parler de personnes fournissant jusqu'à 300 services environ dans des environnements soigneusement définis, mais je ne pense vraiment pas que vous atteindrez 600. Vous pouvez envisager de définir la majorité d'entre eux à 0 instance minimale peut rencontrer des problèmes si les utilisateurs font des demandes à plus de la moitié d'entre eux. Les services hébergés peuvent constituer une solution, mais cela nécessite que les données se trouvent dans le magasin de données ArcGIS, et non dans votre propre géodatabase d'entreprise. En 10.7, les instances partagées peuvent être utilisées pour gérer le nombre d'instances en cours d'exécution, mais je ne suis pas sûr que cela ait été testé sur des centaines de services. Je pense que vous feriez mieux de partager vos services entre plusieurs sites. ... View more

Sounds like the one thing that changed was the certificate was imported into the machine hosting the web adaptors? What kind of certificate were you using? Wildcard from your domain signing authority, CA signed certificate from a well-known provider, (Digicert, Verisign, etc)? ... View more

Are you able to create a new item, user or group? Any of those operations write to the database, and if it's in read-only mode, it'll fail. ... View more

That endpoint is available over https (https://downloads.esri.com/patch_notification/patches.json), so if you can sort out a way to translate the request from 80 to 443, and back from 443 to 80, that may work? Worst case you'll need to download them manually. We'll update the utility. ... View more

Did you remove the primary/original machine? It sounds like the database on the remaining machine, or new primary, isn't set to read/write, but read-only which is the expected state of the database on the standby. ... View more

I set the utility to use Fiddler as a proxy and it actually goes through HTTP: The "patches" key in the response has all of the patches available for 10.6.1, for example. Try to let 80 through your firewall or configure the utility to use a forward proxy. ... View more

When you federate Portal and Server, you'll only be able to use either the services URL or the admin URL to reach Manager. If you federate using the web adaptor URL for both, the internal machine name likely won't work and you'll see the scrolling bar indefinitely. The network traffic should have a bunch of generateToken requests and the response has an error about being unable to generate a token for this server. You may not be running into this but it's good to know. The error does seem to be related to admin access, though, as Bill Bott‌ suggests. You don't need to uninstall and reinstall, though. You can either: 1) Re-register it and click the checkbox to allow admin access 2) Navigate to https://server.domain.com:6443/arcgis/admin/system/webadaptors/<id> and append update to the URL, then check the box to enable admin access ...
