@David_BrooksWe have the same problem after upgrading from 10.9.1 to 11.3, and rebooting, or restarting DynamicMappingHost or altering shared instance settings does't resolve our issue. Is your ArcGIS Server log also filled with a lot of "Instance of the service 'System/DynamicMappingHost.MapServer' crashed. ..." messages? ... View more

Thanks @JakeSkinner  I didn't know there is a performance benefint to hosted feature services, we have some relatively static data that I could publish as hosted feature services instead. ... View more

Thanks for your answers @RachaelHarbes  and @RyanUthoff ! Right now I have to many services and not enough memory on our server to be able to switch all services to dedicated. Many of our services only have a few layers, I'm going to merge some of them to reduce the number of services and talk to our IT department about increasing the memory on the server. So it will be some time before I can test this. ... View more

@DavidColey @berniejconnors @JakeSkinner You all agree that the number of services that use a shared pool should be just "a few" / 15-20 / 25 % / no more than 30. In the documentation I can't see anything that points to that, and the shared pool is used as default. For us, the shared pool was great to save resources on our server when it was introduced. A couple of months ago, we had 10.9.1 with about 100 services in the shared pool and 25 with dedicated, and it worked fine. But then we upgraded to 11.3 which seemed to go well at first, but then we noticed performance issues which came from "Instance of the service 'System/DynamicMappingHost.MapServer'" crashing all the time. I've tried switching about 15-20 of the most used services in the shared pool to dedicated, so maybe we have about 80 in the shared pool and 45 with dedicated, but it didn't make any difference. Switching all except 20 services to dedicated would make the memory on our server run out. We have a single server deployment of ArcGIS Enterprise on a virtual server with 4 cores (limited to that by our license) and 32 GB of memory. Any suggestions? We have a lot of services with just a few layers. Maybe I have to merge as many as I can to end up with a lower number of services but more layers in each service? ... View more

@TanuHoque "The idea behind shared instances is that there is no limit. You can publish as many as you want. The main thing is that how many of them will remain cached." This is my understanding of the documentation, but after uppgrading from 10.9.1 to 11.3 we have a problem with 'System/DynamicMappingHost.MapServer' crashing very often, several times an hour.   Would you say this is another problem than just the number of services with shared instance? ...

Hi @RachaelHarbes  Were you able to fix all your problems after fixing all services? We have problems with services with shared instance pool after uppgrading 10.9.1 to 11.3. 'System/DynamicMappingHost.MapServer'  crashes all the time. ... View more

I recently ran into this problem too. A few weeks ago we updated our ArcGIS Enterprise from 10.9.1 to 11.3, so I assume that's the reason. Using a web mercator basemap or migrating to Experince Builder is not a short-term option for us. In the long term, we will migrate to Experience builder, but I need a quicker solution to this Add data widget problem in WAB. Anyone know if it's possible to make changes to the widget source code to fix this? WAB is a part of Enterprise 11.3, so I was expecting WAB and all of its OOTB Widgets would work after an upgrade to 11.3.     ... View more

The same annyoing behavior applies to sites, if I want to open another site from a gallery. First, it displays the descriptive page and from there, I have to go to its item page in the portal before I can actually open the other site I want to link to. Now I have to create a different type of link, but it would be nice to group it into a gallery along with other web apps that work as desired. ... View more

Sad to hear that @KlaraSchmitt , I just updated our portal från 10.9.1 to 11.3 and really miss to old behavior of the gallery cards. I hope you can figure out a solution to this in the future that works woth the accessibility guidelines. ... View more

We just did this and all that was required was to update the data store in the portal (in our case) as Jake described above. All services using that data source now read from the new database without having to restart them or anything. Easier than I could have hoped for 😀 ... View more

Thanks @JakeSkinner ! I have several databases in the same instance, some of them belong to other systems where I read data through query layers. I have one data store for each database. As I understand it, I need to run the script once for each database/data store? and if I move one database at a time, instance names should not be changed in the wrong places but only in files that belong to the map services affected by the current data store (DSID)? ...

We are about to migrate our SQL Server 2016 to 2022 on a new server, so this thread is very helpful. It's aldready been discussed in this thread but just to be clear, if I just update my existing datasource with a new .sde file, will everything work except the service workspace dialog shows old values? I can live with that and it seems like an easier option, or is there any other drawback? @TimMintermentioned another approach with aliases for the SQL Server machines, our IT depaterment said that we should use an alias for the new server. But if we set that alias for the old/existing server I would have to update all my current connections to the database to use the alias instead of the server name right? Then I might as well wait until the new server is up and update the data source to the new server and use the alias, but it will be easier next time? ... View more

@Shen_Zhang Can you tell us something about the timeline and when we can expect a marker URL parameter? ... View more

Make sure the browser window width not cross one of the breakpoints 992px and 576px https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-experience-builder-questions/what-are-the-break-points-for-large-medium-small/m-p/1334018  But I assume this is a bug that I hope Esri fixes as soon as possible. ... View more

Did some testing on this, it seems that when the browser window width is changed to make the application switch between small, medium or large screen mode, all the drawings disappear. This is of course something that Esri has to fix, we can't have it that way. ... View more
