Gateways are gone
( i updated my post with more informations)
Yes, they are both installed, but not configured anymore. The first that disappered is on my local machine.
Recovery is not possible on both Gateways.
Hi DennisJung,
Based on your description, you can’t find configured On-premises Data Gateways( Gateway A and Gateway B) in Power BI service Manage Gateways -> Gateway Clusters ,right?
Please follow below steps to troubleshoot the issue:
- Check if gateway has been updated to the latest version.
- As you mentioned when you ran the on-premise data gateway app on the machine, it prompted you enter account. After you signed in with your Power BI service account, were you able to choose “Migrate, restore, or take over an existing gateway” to use Recovery key to recover Gateway A and Gateway B? Was there any error occurring?
- Did you add another users as administrators of Gateway A and Gateway B before? If it did, please let these users check if those two gateways are available in their Power BI service Manage Gateways pane. Also confirm if you are in the administrator list as well.
In addition, you say “The powerbi service status says everything is ok”, would you please clarify which status you mean?
Regards,
Jimmy Tao

--> Correct, see screenshoot. They are completly gone, one after another.

--> Nope, no error. I was asked for my account, and i entered my admin account which i always use for powerbi. The only option i have is to install a new gateway, no migrate or restore. This happens on both machines.

-> No, i didn't add anybody else. I can not check it because they are not avaible :)

I meant the global service status on this page here: https://powerbi.microsoft.com/de-de/support/
DennisJung Do you not have a recovery key for the gateways? When was the last time you updated the gateways?
I have them, but i can not use them. PowerBi doesn't know my gateways anymore, i have no option to select them (and enter my recovery key).
