Thanks for the info Tim, I appreciate it.

I'm not sure how accurate the usage stats are, I just noticed that the parent 
community "views" does not = the total of the sub-community views.

Subject: Re: [Dspace-tech] Administrative Statistics

The "Administrative Statistics" are the (very old) legacy DSpace statistics 
pulled from log files, which pre-dated the Usage Statistics (based on Solr).  
They are only generated by running these commandline options:

[dspace]/bin/dspace stat-initial
[dspace]/bin/dspace stat-general
[dspace]/bin/dspace stat-monthly

The only reason they still exist is that the Usage Statistics don't provide all 
the same information (yet).  The Usage Statistics are much more accurate in 
providing usage information (as these legacy, log-based stats do not filter out 
spiders or similar).  But, the legacy, log-based stats do provide some unique 
administrative statistics, like the counts of the number of actions performed 
in your DSpace, etc.

Overall, the Usage Statistics are a much better resource for actual 
download/view statistics. But some people do enable these older statistics just 
to get an overview of overall site activity.

Hi-
Can someone tell me what the "Statistics" option is in the Administrative 
panel", is it different then the "Usage Statistics" and whatnot in the 
"Statistics" section?
