Hi Xander,
Thank you for this clarification.
I am digging for this option, because we have a problem in overwrite publish the services as a following screenshot.
I know that we can do a workaround solution for this issue as following:
- Stop the arcgis server.
- Delete the locks files.
- Restart the arcgis server.
- Overwrite publish the service.
However, can we use this option “disable the schema lock" so we can get red or skip the locks and publish our services snugly?
Moreover, I read an article that recommended from this link, but my fears that the data itself may be affected” If you update the dataset schema when the service is under load, users of your map service may experience unexpected behavior such as layers and fields missing, queries failing, and service unavailability."
To summarize my points:
- Does this option affect the database itself?
- Which layers that should use this option?
- Can we skip the locks files by using this option, to skip the lock files when publishing the services?
Thank you in Advance
