Q: Where should Admin Tools for ArcGIS be if Installed On-Premises?
A: It is usually fine to install Admin Tools for ArcGIS on the same machine that runs the actual ArcGIS Enterprise. The application itself is very lightweight in terms of size and resources needed to run it. As long as the machine in question can "see" and connect to the Environments you would like to manage, Admin Tools should generally be able to be installed and run from that location.
Q: Can Admin Tools for ArcGIS be installed to the same location and machine hosting ArcGIS Server Monitor?
A: Because Server Monitor takes over port 443, you cannot run Admin Tools on the same server. According to ArcGIS Server Monitor Documentation: "If Internet Information Server (IIS) is running on the same machine as the Monitor Server application, port 443 may already be in use and you'll need to choose a different port number, such as 444." It is then recommended that Admin Tools be installed to a different location.
Q: What versions of ArcGIS Enterprise does Admin Tools for ArcGIS work with?
A: GEO Jobe's Release Ready Specialty Designation ensures commitment to keeping up with ArcGIS Enterprise versions moving forward. Please note however that GEO Jobe GIS Consulting cannot guarantee full support for ArcGIS Enterprise 10.3 and earlier. Issues may arise, including (but not limited to) specific CORS settings requiring Admin Tools to be installed on the same domain as the Environment.
...
Q: If using dedicated servers for Admin Tools for ArcGIS, is a dedicated server per environment required, or can one “Admin Tools” server work for multiple environments?
A: One Admin Tools installation will suffice, provided we know all the various Environments it will need to be able to connect to for the build process.
Q: Do you need the DNS and hostnames of the federated ArcGIS Servers and Datastores?
A: We only need the Environment Hostnames and DNS, not any federated ArcGIS servers linked to them.
