Parameters have changed
for this tool at version 10.1. Models and scripts written prior to 10.1 that
use this tool will need to be modified to work in 10.1.
Creates and updates
tiles in an existing globe service cache. This tool is used to create new tiles
or to replace missing tiles, overwrite outdated tiles, or add new tiles. All
these actions can be defined by rectangular extents or by a polygon feature
class. When creating new tiles, you can choose whether to create only empty
tiles or re-create all tiles.
This is a deprecated tool.
1. Input Service
The globe service whose
cache tiles you want to update. You can drag and drop a globe service from the
Catalog tree to supply this parameter.
2. Input Layers
The layers to include in
the cache.
For each layer, you need
to provide a level_from, which is the level of detail at which you would like
to begin caching the layer, and a level_to, which is the level of detail at
which you would like to end caching the layer. If the smallest and largest levels
of detail are used for level_from and level_to, respectively, a full cache will
be built for the layer.
3. Update Mode
Choose a mode for updating the cache. The two modes are:
- RECREATE_EMPTY_TILES—Only tiles that are empty will be created. Existing tiles will be left unchanged.
- RECREATE_ALL_TILES—All tiles, including existing tiles, will be replaced. Additionally, new tiles will be added if a layer's data extent has changed or new layers have been added to the globe service and listed in this tool.
4. Number of caching service instances (optional)
The total number of
instances of the System/CachingTools service that you want to dedicate toward
running this tool. You can increase the maximum number of instances per machine
of the System/CachingTools service using the Service Editor window available through
an administrative connection to ArcGIS Server. Ensure your server machines can
support the chosen number of instances.
5. Area of Interest (optional)
Defines an area of
interest to constrain where tiles will be created or deleted. This can be a
feature class, or it can be a feature that you interactively define in ArcMap.
This parameter is useful if you want to manage tiles for irregularly shaped
areas.
It's also useful in situations where you want to precache some areas and
leave less-visited areas uncached.
6. Cache areas for all features and ignore completion status field (optional)
This parameter allows you to track the status of your caching if you are creating tiles based on feature class boundaries (see the Area of Interest parameter).
- TRACK_STATUS—The feature class' Cached field is read (and created if it doesn't exist yet). Features containing No or null in this field are cached and will contain Yes when caching has completed for the feature. Features already marked Yes in this field are not cached.
- DO_NOT_TRACK_STATUS—The feature class' Cached field is ignored and tiles are created for all features in the feature class.
7. Update Extent (optional)
Rectangular extent at
which tiles should be created or deleted, depending on the Update Mode. You can
type the extent values or choose an extent from an existing data source.

Manage Map Server Cache Scales
Updates the scale levels
in an existing cached map or image service. Use this tool to add new scales or delete
existing scales from a cache.
1. Input Service
The map or image service
for which you want to add or remove cache scales. You can drag and drop a map
or image service from the Catalog tree to supply this parameter.
2. Scales
The scale values to be
included in the updated tiling scheme.
You must specify
existing scale values if you want to keep them. Any existing scale levels you
do not specify in this tool will be permanently deleted. For example, if you
have four existing scales and you wish to add two scales, make sure your final
list has a total of six scales.

Manage Map Server Cache Status
Manages internal data
kept by the server about the built tiles in a map or image service cache.
1. Input Service
The map or image service
for which the status will be modified. You can drag and drop a map or image
service from the Catalog tree to supply this parameter.
2. Scales (optional)
The scale levels for
which the status will be modified. This parameter is only applicable when
building a custom status using the Rebuild bundle status option for the Manage
Mode parameter.
3. Manage Mode
- DELETE_CACHE_STATUS—Deletes the status information used by the server.
- REBUILD_CACHE_STATUS—Deletes, then rebuilds the status information used by the server.
- REPORT_BUNDLE_STATUS—Creates status information in a new file geodatabase named Status.gdb in a folder you specify in the Output Folder parameter. This option is used when you want to create a custom status report for a particular area of interest or set of scales.
4. Number of caching service instances (optional)
The total number of
instances of the System/CachingTools service that you want to dedicate toward
running this tool. You can increase the maximum number of instances per machine
of the System/CachingTools service using the Service Editor window available
through an administrative connection to ArcGIS Server. Ensure your server
machines can support the chosen number of instances.
This tool uses three
instances by default, if that many are available. Using a larger number of
instances with this tool may cause the operation to slow down.
5. Output Folder (optional)
Output folder for the
Status.gdb. This parameter is only applicable when building a custom status
using the Rebuild bundle status option.
6. Area Of Interest (Polygon) (optional)
An area of interest
(polygon) that determines what geography the status report will cover. This
parameter is only applicable when building a custom status using the Rebuild
bundle status option.
7. Report Extent (optional)
A rectangular extent
defining the area for which the status will be built. This parameter is only
applicable when building a custom status using the Rebuild bundle status
option.
Note that the Area Of
Interest parameter allows you to specify an area of interest that is
nonrectangular.

Manage Map Server Cache Tiles
Creates and updates
tiles in an existing web tile layer cache. This tool is used to create new
tiles, replace missing tiles, overwrite outdated tiles, and delete tiles.
1. Input Service
The web tile layer or
map image layer whose cache tiles you want to update.
2. Scales (Estimated Disk Space)
A list of scale levels
at which tiles will be created.
By default, the scales
listed in the tool dialog are between the minimum and maximum cached scales for
the service. You cannot change the cache scale range of the service with ArcGIS
Pro. You can however change it using ArcMap by selecting the service in the Catalog
window, and selecting Service Properties from its context menu. Use the Caching
tab and adjust the slider bar. You can also adjust this property by editing the
"Tile Layer" and adjusting the "visible scale range" in the
portal URL.
3. Update Mode
The mode for updating the cache.
- RECREATE_EMPTY_TILES—Only tiles that are empty will be created. Existing tiles will be left unchanged. This option is not available for web tile layers published to ArcGIS Online.
- RECREATE_ALL_TILES—Existing tiles will be replaced and new tiles will be added if the extent has changed.
- DELETE_TILES—Tiles will be deleted from the cache. The cache folder structure will not be deleted.
4. Number of caching service instances (optional)
Defines the number of
instances that will be used to update/generate the tiles. The value for this
parameter is set to unlimited (-1) and cannot be modified.
5. Area Of Interest (Polygon) (optional)
Defines an area of
interest to constrain where tiles will be created or deleted. This parameter is
useful if you want to manage tiles for irregularly shaped areas. It's also
useful in situations where you want to pre-cache some areas and leave
less-visited areas uncached.
If you do not provide a
value for this parameter, the default is to use the full extent of the map.
6. Wait for job completion (optional)
This parameter allows you to watch the progress of the cache job running on ArcGIS Online or Portal for ArcGIS.
- Checked—This tool will continue to run in Pro while the cache job runs on your Portal for ArcGIS or ArcGIS Online. With this option, you can request detailed progress reports at any time and view the geoprocessing messages as they appear.
- Unchecked—This tool will submit the job to the Portal, allowing you to perform other geoprocessing tasks in ArcGIS Pro or even close it. This option is used when you choose to build a cache automatically at the time you publish the service, and you can also set this option on any other cache that you build. To track the status of the cache job, open ArcMap, right-click the service in the Catalog window, and click View Cache Status. You can also use the URL provided in the tool result message.
7. Update Extent (optional)
Rectangular extent at which to create or delete tiles, depending
on the value of the Update Mode parameter. It is not recommended you provide
values for both Update Extent and Area of Interest. If values for both
parameters are provided, the value of Area of Interest will be used.
Upgrade Map Server Cache Storage Format

Upgrade Map Server Cache Storage Format

Toolset, Server Tools Toolbox
Upgrade Map Server Cache Storage
Format
Upgrades the compact
cache storage format of a map or image service (created at 10.2.2 and earlier
versions) to take advantage of performance improvements available at 10.3 and
later versions.
Beginning at 10.3, the compact cache storage format was improved to increase performance when consuming cached map and image services. Improvements also reduced the number of files created in the cache directory by including the tile index information (.bundlx files) inside the .bundle files. New compact caches created with ArcGIS 10.3 for Server (and later versions) will automatically leverage the performance improvements.
If you upgrade to 10.3 and later versions, your services with compact caches generated in earlier versions will continue to work. You can continue to maintain these caches using the server cache tools.
If you want your existing cache to leverage the performance improvements, upgrade to 10.3 (or later versions) and then upgrade the cache using this tool. Upgrading the cache does not create new tiles; instead, the files are reorganized to be compliant with the improved format.
The improved compact cache storage format is not backwards compatible with earlier versions of ArcGIS. For example, a compact cache created or upgraded using 10.3 (or later versions) cannot be transferred and consumed in 10.2.2 (or earlier versions) of the software. The improved compact cache storage format is always expected to be associated with a service.
1. Input Service
The map or image service
cache you want to upgrade.
This string contains
both the server and service information. To see how to construct this string,
open ArcCatalog, select your service in the Catalog tree, and note the text in
the Location toolbar. Then change the backslashes to forward slashes, for example,
GIS Servers/arcgis on MYSERVER (admin)/USA.MapServer.
2. Number of caching service instances (optional)
The total number of instances of the System/CachingTools service that you want to dedicate toward running this tool. You can increase the maximum number of instances per machine of the System/CachingTools service using the Service Editor window available through an administrative connection to ArcGIS Server. Ensure your server machines can support the chosen number of instances.
