Hi Ted, I've messed with some code that I got from esri (thanks Kevin H.) and with the various sample in the 10.1 beta 2 help for the Rest API. This is overkill for what I will need eventually, but it shows one way to 1) create a token on the fly, 2) list running services within a folder(s), 3) stop those services..<< insert your code here >>...and restarts them. I'm still cleaning it up a bit, but thought it is worth sharing as is. I really like the new api, and it eliminates those (mildly annoying) DOS windows from popping up as with the AGSSOC....although I am very greatful to those that worked on and published the AGSSOC (which I still use for 10.0, of course).all: To use, replace the server, port (if necessary), username, and password with your local info. If you want to hardcode a token, you can modify it to do that. Also, at a minimum, the "dfg_common" is one of my subfolders....you will need to replace that with one of your folders....or modify to eliminate or expand this option. I hope this helps others.''' Sample of using REST API for ArcGIS Server 10.1 to list a service folder,
and stop and start the services...it also creates a token, if needed (can be hard coded).
I have it set to work with MapServices but it in theory is can work with any.
This script basically lists the services in a folder (dfg_common in sample), stops those that are
currently running, then starts them again. This is a snippet used for testing
(and not very pratical by itself). For me, I will incorporate it with updating
data and caches. Most likely it can be cleaned up a bit.
Modified for general sample distribution. Replace the following with local info:
variable values for server, port, username (AGS site Admin), and password.
Also in the line "if folder == "dfg_common" should be modified and/or
replaced for your local site....or can be modified if you don't have
subfolder structure.
This was developed under 10.1 beta 2...not tested with pre-release yet,
which is due out any day. I will test in the next couple weeks and
update/repost if needed.
Thanks to Kevin Hibma who got me on the right track, and additional info was from
samples in the 10.1 beta ArcGIS Rest API help....
