Usage analysis for Office XP Web Services does not automatically occur on a server that is running Windows Server 2003 (889363)

WORKAROUND

To work around this behavior, you can create a scheduled task by using Scheduled Tasks in Control Panel. Alternatively, you can manually create a scheduled task by using the Schtasks.exe tool. This tool runs the following example batch file at a set time interval:

@echo off
if not (%1)==(low) start /low cmd.exe /c Batch_file_name.cmd low
if not (%1)==(low) goto EXIT
cd /d "%ProgramFiles%\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\web server extensions\50\bin"
owsadm.exe -o usage -p lm/w3svc/1
owsadm.exe -o usage -p lm/w3svc/2
owsadm.exe -o usage -p lm/w3svc/3
:EXIT

In this example, the Owsadm.exe command-line utility is called three times to process usage statistics for the Web sites that have the identifier numbers of 1, 2, and 3. To see the Web site identifiers, follow these steps:

1. Start Internet Services Manager.
2. Click the name of the Web site that you want to examine.
3. Read the description of the Web site. The description lists the Web site identifiers.
4. Quit Internet Services Manager.
