Hi Torrey,
I am sorry for the delayed response due to weekend. Please understand that
the newsgroups are staffed weekdays by Microsoft Support professionals to
answer your systems and applications questions. Your understanding is
greatly appreciated!
Based on my research, the Usage Report function in Monitoring and Reporting
works good and you can get that information in real time. You need not
worry about it and I believe it will meet your requirements.
There are some issues you need notice:
1. The usage and performance report is based on the performance/health
monitor results. After we run the reporting wizard, the SBS server will
begin to save value collected by the monitoring components to the SBS
monitoring database. The SBS reporting utility needs to collect usage data
for more than 24 hours so that the report can be generated.
If this is the first time you run the wizard on a SBS server or you choose
to 'Reinstall' the feature in the wizard, the database would be
initialized. At that time, the server needs to wait for 24 hours to
generate the usage report.
2. Usage information for Internet activity cannot be viewed in the server
usage reports.
Cause: You might be using a router as a firewall to access the Internet. If
so, usage information for Internet activity cannot be included in the
report because Windows Small Business Server 2003 is unable to monitor
firewall statistics for third-party devices.
Solution: Install a second network adapter on the computer running Windows
Small Business Server 2003, and then enable the Routing and Remote Access
service as the firewall on the server by using the Configure E-mail and
Internet Connection Wizard.
Another scenario: using the Internet Security and Acceleration (ISA) Server
firewall to access the Internet. Windows Small Business Server 2003 is
unable to monitor firewall statistics for ISA Server.
Solution: Configure ISA Server for monitoring and reporting. For more
information about configuring ISA Server for monitoring and reporting,
search for "Configure monitoring and reporting" in the ISA Server Help.
To access ISA Server Help, click Start, click Server Management, and then
press F1."
Hope above information helps! If you have any further concern or question
about the issue please feel free to let me know. We are always happy to be
assistance of you!
Have a nice day!
Best Regards,
Jenny Wu
