Examples

The following example lists the clusters participating in the ArcGIS Server site.

<Python installation location>\python.exe "C:\Program Files\ArcGIS\Server\tools\admin\managesite.py" -u admin -p admin -s http://gisserver.domain.com:6080 -lc
===Clusters on this site===
- default
- geocluster

The following example lists the GIS server machines participating in the default cluster.

<Python installation location>\python.exe "C:\Program Files\ArcGIS\Server\tools\admin\managesite.py" -u admin -p admin -s http://vanguard:6080 -c default -l
===Machines on this cluster===
- VANGUARD.ESRI.COM
- BIRDLAND.ESRI.COM

The following example deletes the cluster named geocluster from the ArcGIS Server site.

<Python installation location>\python.exe "C:\Program Files\ArcGIS\Server\tools\admin\managesite.py" -u admin -p admin -s http://gisserver.domain.com:6080 -c geocluster -D

The following example removes the machine BIRDLAND.ESRI.COM from the default cluster.

<Python installation location>\python.exe "C:\Program Files\ArcGIS\Server\tools\admin\managesite.py" -u admin -p admin -s http://vanguard:6080 -R BIRDLAND.ESRI.COM -c default

The following example adds the machine BIRDLAND.ESRI.COM to the default cluster.

<Python installation location>\python.exe "C:\Program Files\ArcGIS\Server\tools\admin\managesite.py" -u admin -p admin -s http://vanguard:6080 -A BIRDLAND.ESRI.COM -c default

The following example stops all GIS servers in the cluster named geocluster.

<Python installation location>\python.exe "C:\Program Files\ArcGIS\Server\tools\admin\managesite.py" -u admin -p admin -s http://gisserver.domain.com:6080 -c geocluster -o stop

The following example starts all GIS servers in the cluster named geocluster.

<Python installation location>\python.exe "C:\Program Files\ArcGIS\Server\tools\admin\managesite.py" -u admin -p admin -s http://gisserver.domain.com:6080 -c geocluster -o start
