To fix this, we will change the directories to a highly available share.

This will be an issue when we attempt to join the secondary machine to this site. The directories are currently local to the primary machine. Once finished, if we navigate over to our ArcGIS Server Manager, we can see our directories and configuration store mirror the following: The config-store will point to a newly created bucket with the syntax arcgis-config-store. I am purposely leaving the directories field blank as we will shortly change them to a highly available share. To ensure that the above works, you will need to have an IAM role configured to your EC2 instances (or you can use a pre-generated access key ID and secret key). The documentation earlier provides the appropriate syntax, please find an example below: Additionally, as we are performing a multi-machine site, please ensure all your machines are licensed with the SAME licensing.Īfter that is done, in a web browser, we will navigate to the ArcGIS Server Admin directory ( Once there, we will have to ensure that we properly fill out the config-store and directories field. Make sure that you authorize ArcGIS Server before proceeding. Once done, we will start the ArcGIS Server service as shown below: Once we have our two EC2 instances deployed, we will need to SSH into the machine we will use as the primary. However, please be aware for purposes of this blog that I will be using the following ESRI AMI: We will not go through the process of setting up our AMIs as we have done so in the previous blog.

This blog can be applied to both Linux and Windows platforms, but we will utilize Linux as the focal point. Additionally, this serves to complement the documentation titled Configure a highly available ArcGIS Server with a shared configuration store on Amazon storage services. In this blog, we will expand upon my previous blog “ Monthly Linux Tip: Getting Started with an ESRI AWS AMI” and discuss setting up a multi-machine ArcGIS Server site in AWS. Over time, we have noted that ArcGIS Enterprise users are finding benefits in the following areas: cloud deployments and highly available deployments. In order to do so, all content needs to be stored in a highly available, shared location for the registered machines to access. If you have not read that blog, please read that blog before continuing.Ī common practice in any organization is standing up highly available systems. NOTE: This blog references my prior blog titled “Monthly Linux Tip: Getting Started with an ESRI AWS AMI.
