EAEP2201 Exam Dumps : Enterprise Administration Professional 2201

The correct solution is to place ArcGIS Enterprise in read-only mode. This is an administrative function designed specifically to prevent changes to content or configuration while still allowing users to view and access existing items.

From the official ArcGIS Enterprise documentation:

“Read-only mode allows an administrator to restrict changes to the portal. When enabled, no users (including administrators) can create, update, or delete items, groups, or users. However, users can still search for and view items, access content, and use apps and services.”

This feature is typically used during maintenance windows or before performing disaster recovery tasks to preserve system state.

Option B is incorrect because changing user roles to Viewer would not prevent content changes by administrators or other roles with publishing privileges.

Option C refers to cloning, which is not a preventive or temporary access control measure, but rather a method for standby deployments or replication.

Option D (disabling the Web Adaptor) would disrupt access entirely, which does not match the requirement to allow viewing.

To allow users to add new features without the ability to modify or delete existing ones, the feature service should have the "Create" and "Query" operations enabled. The "Create" operation permits users to add new features, while the "Query" operation allows them to view existing features. By not enabling the "Update" and "Delete" operations, users are restricted from making changes to or removing existing features. This configuration is ideal for workflows where data integrity is crucial, and only the addition of new data is permitted.​

Enabling "Update and sync" (Option A) would allow users to modify existing features and synchronize changes, which is not desired in this scenario. "Extract and create" (Option C) is not a standard combination of operations for controlling editing permissions in feature services.​

This issue is consistent with desktop heap exhaustion, especially when a high number of ArcSOC processes (e.g., 390) are running on Windows. Desktop heap is a limited memory resource used for GUI and system object management. When it runs out, services can fail to start and produce XML-related errors.

Increasing the non-interactive desktop heap size in the Windows registry resolves this.

From Esri documentation:

“If the Windows desktop heap size is too low, ArcGIS Server may be unable to create new processes (ArcSOC), causing service failures and related internal server errors.”

Option B is a generic fix and won’t address the specific heap exhaustion issue.

Option C doesn’t help if the root issue is OS-level heap size limits.
