When does the number of arcsoc instances cause ArcGIS?
When the system is put under load, the memory usage grows to accommodate the high performance functions being handled. One ArcSOC.exe process and every running instance creates two ArcSOC.exe processes. For example, one geoprocessing service with three running instances generates seven ArcSOC.exe processes.
Why does ArcGIS work when the server is idle?
ArcGIS for Server is tuned for optimal performance without additional configuration. Even when the system is idle, it is set for a large volume of requests. When the system is put under load, the memory usage grows to accommodate the high performance functions being handled.
How to reduce the number of ArcGIS instances?
Log in to ArcGIS Server Manager with an administrative account. Under Site (root) > System, click the service to modify. Click Pooling, and select the Shared instance pool radio button. Click Save and Restart. Option 2: Set the minimum number of instances to ‘0’. (Available in all versions of ArcGIS Server.)
Can you use shared instances in ArcGIS Pro?
Services that have custom server object extensions (SOEs) or server object interceptors (SOIs) cannot use shared instances. Services published from ArcMap cannot use shared instances. Cached map services published from ArcGIS Pro that meet the above requirements can use shared instances.
Why is ArcGIS Server not proceeding with installation?
Although Windows allows you to use the underscore in a machine name, it can still cause problems when you interact with other servers and platforms. For this reason, ArcGIS Server will not proceed with installation on servers that have an underscore in the host name. Why are some folders left behind after uninstalling?
What to do if your ArcGIS license is expired?
If you receive a message about your license being expired, contact Esri Customer Service to obtain a new license and reauthorize ArcGIS Server using the ArcGIS Software Authorization Wizard.
Only certain capabilities of map services—feature access, WFS, WMS, and KML—can be enabled. Turn off all other capabilities before continuing. Services that have custom server object extensions (SOEs) or server object interceptors (SOIs) cannot use shared instances. Services published from ArcMap cannot use shared instances.
How to limit the number of ArcGIS instances?
For services that are highly consumed by users, set the maximum number of instances to ‘MaxInstances = n+1’ (‘n’ being the number of cores of the host machine). Refer to the following ArcGIS Help documentation for additional information on ArcGIS for Server performance optimization: Tune and configure services.
Can a shared instance be used for Geoprocessing?
Other service types, such as geoprocessing services, are not supported. Only certain capabilities of map services—feature access, WFS, WMS, and KML—can be enabled. Turn off all other capabilities before continuing. Services that have custom server object extensions (SOEs) or server object interceptors (SOIs) cannot use shared instances.
