<Regarding finding the root cause:

<1) I'm not positive, but the only recent change recently is when SP2 was
<installed. Usage reports were working fine prior to that.
<2) Yes
<3) I'll capture that tomorrow and send it
<4) I'll download and install the MPS report tool, then run it tomorrow
when
<I'm at the client location

<> Hi Bruce,

<> I am sorry for the delay due to the weekend.
<>
<> From your description, I know that the SBS Usage Report Failed to
generate
<> and you get Event 5603. If that's not right, please don't hesitate to let
<> me know.
<>
<> Based on my research, this event occurs because the Windows Management

<> System account is a potential security risk. Because the Resultant Set of

<>
<> RSoP data is used only for monitoring and diagnostic purposes. No known

<> This warning is only stating that this account has system privilege. This

<>
<> More info:
<>
<> Event ID: 5603 occurs when you install Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 1

<> http://support.microsoft.com/?id=915148
<>
<> To find out the root cause of the Usage Report failure, please help me

<>
<> 1. What important change did you made before this issue first occurred?
<>
<> 2. Is the Server Performance report working OK?
<>
<> 3. Screen Shot when you click the Server Usage Report in mailbox.
<>
<> 4. MPS Report
<>
<> 1) Download MPS report tool from:

http://download.microsoft.com/download/b/b/1/bb139fcb-4aac-4fe5-a579-30b0bd9
<> 15706/MPSRPT_SETUPPerf.EXE

<> 3) Wait for 10~15 minutes.
<> 4) Open Windows explorer, navigate to
<> %SYSTEMROOT%\MPSReports\Setup\Reports\cab\
<> 5) Send the .cab file to us.
<>
<> Please send the information to v-robeli@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with subject:
