Actual exam question for Esri's EAEP2201 exam

Question #: 14
Topic #: 3

An ArcGIS Enterprise administrator wants to publish their feature classes as layers in bulk from a registered geodatabase.

Which action should the administrator perform?

ARegister the geodatabase in ArcGIS Server Manager

BCreate a data store item in the ArcGIS Enterprise portal

CImport an SDE connection file into ArcGIS Server Administrator Directory

DRegister as a hosted layer in ArcGIS Data Store

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: A

To publish feature classes as services in bulk from an enterprise geodatabase, it must first be registered with the ArcGIS Server site. This registration tells ArcGIS Server where to access the data directly for referenced service publishing. The proper way to do this is through ArcGIS Server Manager.

From ArcGIS Enterprise documentation:

''To publish layers directly from a registered enterprise geodatabase without copying data, you must register the geodatabase with your ArcGIS Server site using ArcGIS Server Manager.''

Option B is used for hosted services, not referenced publishing.

Option C is not the correct interface for registering data sources.

Option D involves hosting data, which is not applicable for referenced layers from a geodatabase.

I think the answer might be A, but I'm not entirely sure if that's the only step needed for bulk publishing.
