I would like some help understanding the portions of DSpace that manage
statistics and metrics. I would appreciate any corrections to my
understandings
The following menu options provide statistics and metrics.
- Administrative
- Statistics
- Statistics
- Usage
- Search
- Workflow
- Monthly Reports
As I was researching this in this forum, I read that there is a distinction
between "usage statistics" and "content statistics".
If I understood this correctly,
- usage statistics are generated from solr/statistics
- these are accessed under "Statistics"
- content statistics are generated from dspace log files and stored in
.dat files in /log
- these are accessed under "Administrative/Statistics"
- monthly reports are generated from .dat files and saved as stored in
html files in /reports
- these are accessed under "Monthly Reports"
In order to generate these properly, the following cron jobs must be run on
a regular basis.
- usage statistics
- stats-util -o (hourly)
- content statistics
- stat-general (daily)
- stat-monthly (daily)
- montly reports
- stat-report-general (daily)
- stat-report-monthly (daily)
I am currently encountering 2 issues with my content statistics.
- I have lost meaningful statistics in production for the last 3 months.
- I changed my log4j logging level from INFO to WARN. Could this
have been the cause?
- In my development environment, I am capturing a lot of garbage entries
under "All Actions Performed".
- The entries appear to be improperly parsed log file entries.
I would appreciate any clarification that the community can provide.
Thanks, Terry
