Resolução

Option 1: Upgrade to Tableau Server 2023.3.2

Tableau Server 2023.3.2 contains the fix for this known issue

If upgrading to Tableau Server 2023.3.2 is not an option, try one of the following potential workarounds:

**Option 2: (During upgrade) Modify servicestate.json to disable NRS service**

During the upgrade process, modify the servicestate.json file following steps below:

1. Stop admin services

Linux: sudo /opt/tableau/tableau_server/packages/scripts.<Build number>/stop-administrative-services

Windows: C:\Program Files\Tableau\Tableau Server\packages\scripts.<Build number>\stop-administrative-services.cmd

2. Navigate to the following filepath: data/tabsvc/tabadmincontroller/0/
3. Edit the servicestate.json file (you will see the folllowing):

"currentState" : "UNINSTALL_FAILED",
"requestedState" : "NONE"

4. Modify the above settings to:

"currentState" : "NONE",
"requestedState" : "NONE"

5. Start admin services and proceed with the upgrade

Linux: sudo /opt/tableau/tableau_server/packages/scripts.<Build number>/start-administrative-services

Windows: C:\Program Files\Tableau\Tableau Server\packages\scripts.<Build number>\start-administrative-services.cmd

**Option 3: (Prior to upgrade) Disable the NRS process**

Enter the following commands in the TSM Command Line Interface (CLI):

1. Run the command:

tsm topology set-process -pr nrs -n node1 -c 0

2. Run the command:

tsm pending-changes apply

NOTE: Tableau Server may prompt for a restart.

3. Check to see Tableau Server has returned to a running status after restarting by running the command:

tsm status -v

Causa

This issue is related to an existing known issue that has been fixed by the Tableau Development Team under ID W-14561356.

Per Tableau Product Help, the NonRelational Storage (NRS) service is a microservice managed and used internally by other Tableau services.

NOTE: The service appears in the CLI but is deprecated. It will be retired (entirely removed) in a future release.
