Installing multiple ArcGIS Web Adaptors

Multiple ArcGIS Web Adaptors can be installed on the same machine at the same time. The installation can also be repeated on separate machines. The steps below will guide you through the process.

How to install multiple Web Adaptors

Multiple Web Adaptors can be installed on the same machine at the same time or the installation can be spread across separate machines. If you want to install multiple Web Adaptors on the same website (port), they must have different names. For example, two Web Adaptors named arcgis cannot exist on the same website. If you want multiple Web Adaptors with the same name, you must install them on separate websites (ports).

  1. Browse to the downloaded folder containing the ArcGIS Web Adaptor setup or insert the ArcGIS Server media into the appropriate drive to automatically launch the media front end.
  2. Follow the same instructions that you used to install the first Web Adaptor. For details, see Installing the ArcGIS Web Adaptor.
Note:

The setup will detect and prevent any conflicts with the Web Adaptor name. If you see a message indicating the virtual directory already exists, specify a different name for the Web Adaptor or select a different website.

Note:

To apply a Web Adaptor service pack, the base instance cannot be removed.

How to install multiple Web Adaptors silently

How to uninstall multiple Web Adaptors
