Hello,

I received the following request from my management : how many restore do we have from the archive per month.

Can anybody tell me how I could find out ? SQL query,....Auditing is not an option for me due to the size of my environment.

Thank you for your help

I then think your only option is to analyze the IIS Logs.
You can use LogParser: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=24659

Here are some example queries: http://blogs.iis.net/carlosag/archive/2010/03/25/analyze-your-iis-log-files-favorite-log-parser-quer...

You probably want to query for "restoreo2k.asp" or equivalent, haven't got a system to check currently.

Cheers

Thank you Michel for your answer this is exactly what I supposed .

Isn't the restore link( restoreo2k) the one used only by outklook ? as we primary use the web interface ( search or archive browser) this wouldn't give me all the restores.

That report requires auditing, which to Sandrine's requirements is "not an option"

Probably best if you just test it and see what strings to look for in IIS.

Thank you but unfortunately we are not using Enterprise Vault monitoring so I can't use those great reports.
