Hi,

 

We are implementing FME Server, we have set up server core components on one machine using docker-compose and engines on different machines using docker.

 

All these are done on Linux, the host is a Linux machine and all component is running on Linux containers.

 

I do have a few users who have jobs that have a dependency on arcpy. I came across this article ArcPy on FME server (safe.com). This is more about windows, is there any way to support arcPy with FME on Linux environment?

 

 

Thanks,

Naman

I'd reach out to support, but in short, i don't think its going to be possible. For ArcPy, you need to have ArcObjects which in turn needs to have a valid Esri license and install

In theory it should work if you install ArcGIS Server for Linux on the same machine as FME Server.

Just be sure to verify version number compatibility first: https://community.safe.com/s/article/notes-on-fme-and-esri-versions-and-compatibility
