  1. 2013 Esri International User Conference July 8–12, 2013 | San Diego, California Technical Workshop ArcGIS Server for Administrators Sterling Quinn Shreyas Shinde

  2. Agenda • ArcGIS Server architecture • Distributing and scaling components • Implementing security • Monitoring server logs • Automating server administration • What’s new in 10.2? • Backup and restore • Q&A ArcGIS Server for Administrators

  3. Server architectures Sterling Quinn Type Presentation Name Here

  4. Pre-10.1 architecture Type Presentation Name Here

  5. Motivation for architecture change • Performance (64 bit) • HTTP only • Faster installation • Scalability and elasticity • High availability • Cloud deployments • Linux improvements

  6. ArcGIS for Server 10.1 Architecture ArcGIS Server site http://6080 Services Directory GIS Server Manager ArcGIS Server account (OS level) Primary SiteAdministrator (PSA) Server Administrator API Configuration store Data Server directories

  7. Single machine deployment with Web Adaptor http://80 • Easily block admin end points • Forward compatibility • Connect via port 80 • GIS site name • Leverage Web tier features • Security • Logging Web Server Web Adaptor Firewall http://6080 GIS Server Configuration store GIS site Data • OOTB reverse proxy Server directories A

  8. Multiple machine site http://80 Web Server Web Adaptor ArcGIS Server site GIS Server1 GIS Server2 Configuration store Data Server directories

  9. Same ArcGIS Server account across all machines All machines can see config-store & server directories and have read/write/create permissions to these via ArcGIS Server account No mix of Windows and Linux among machines Necessary ports open on each machine: 6080 6443 (for HTTPs) 4000 – 4005+ (communication between GIS Servers) Each machine has valid log location Join site checklist

  10. Multiple machine site with clusters http://80 Web Server Web Adaptor ArcGIS Server site GIS Server1 GIS Server2 GIS Server3 Configuration store Data cluster A cluster B Server directories

  11. Multiple machine site with clusters http://80 Web Server Web Adaptor GIS Server1 GIS Server2 GIS Server3 Configuration store Data cluster A cluster B Server directories A

  12. Benefits of clusters • Hardware isolation • Cluster contains machine with the same hardware specs • Dynamic allocation of resources • You set thread instances per machine, NOT per service like previously • You can re-assign machines to different clusters at different times • Isolate intensive processes in their own cluster

  13. High Availability Configuration http: 80 Web Server Web Server Web Adaptor Web Adaptor http:6080 http:6080 GIS Server 1 GIS Server 2 Server Dirs Config-Store

  14. Active-Passive Failover Configuration NLB http: 80 http: 80 Web Server Web Server Web Adaptor Web Adaptor http:6080 http:6080 ArcGIS Server site ArcGIS Server site GIS Server 2 GIS Server 1 Config-Store Server Dirs Config-Store Server Dirs

  15. Implementing Security Shreyas Shinde ArcGIS Server for Administrators

  16. Security is tiered • Installation security • OS permissions on install directory, server directories and configuration store • ArcGIS Server account (OS account) • Database account • Security for published geo content • Administrators, Publishers, Consumers ArcGIS Server for Administrators

  17. Identity stores • Built-in • Out of the box • Windows domain • LDAP • Custom identity providers • You write the identity provider adaptors and deploy it to Server ArcGIS Server for Administrators

  18. Demo: Setting up identity store ArcGIS Server for Administrators

  19. Authentication • Token based • Out of the box authentication scheme • Enterprise authentication • Needs to be configured on the web adaptor • Integrated Windows • PKI/Client certificates • Java EE • … ArcGIS Server for Administrators

  20. Demo: Configuring authentication ArcGIS Server for Administrators

  21. Authorization • Role based access control • Fundamental privileges • Publishers • Administrators • For consumers: • Set permissions on roles • Assign roles to user accounts ArcGIS Server for Administrators

  22. Demo: Configuring authorization ArcGIS Server for Administrators

  23. Server logs and monitoring Sterling Quinn Type Presentation Name Here

  24. Logs available in Manager • Each GIS server writes logs locally • Manager synthesizes logs from all machines • Don’t open or edit manually • Verbose levels for troubleshooting • Map draw extents • Layer draw times Type Presentation Name Here

  25. Demo: Using logs for troubleshooting Type Presentation Name Here

  26. Going further • ArcGIS Server Administrator API lets you query logs and stats through REST Type Presentation Name Here

  27. Statistics available in the Administrator Directory • Administrator Directory gives a window into stats • Shows number of requests per machine • Not available currently in Manager Type Presentation Name Here

  28. Automating Server Administration Shreyas Shinde ArcGIS Server for Administrators

  29. Why automate? • Repetitive workflows • Add more machines during business hours • Start caching during non-peak hours • Understand usage • Very easy • Full administration through HTTP API • Can program in most languages like Java, Python, C#, Ruby… ArcGIS Server for Administrators

  30. Demo ArcGIS Server for Administrators

  31. What’s new in 10.2 Sterling Quinn Type Presentation Name Here

  32. A taste of what’s new in 10.2 • Integration with Portal for ArcGIS • Backup and restore • Disable automatic data copying when publishing Type Presentation Name Here

  33. Backup and restore Shreyas Shinde ArcGIS Server for Administrators

  34. Backup • You want to: • Take regular snapshots of your server for archival • Move from staging to production • Through Python tools or through Admin API • Produces a self contained .agssite (ZIP) file ArcGIS Server for Administrators

  35. Restore • Requires a valid Site • Import exported .agssite (ZIP) file • Deletes all current configuration of site and restores site to the configuration in the .agssite file ArcGIS Server for Administrators

  36. Demo: Creating a backup ArcGIS Server for Administrators
