• Set database properties that improve performance.
• Create a replica of the database on another server, if possible, one within a server cluster.
• Move the database to a more powerful server.
• Move the database to a disk that is less heavily used, or if it's a large database, to its own disk.

How the Statlog task generates activity statistics

The Statlog task runs by default once a day at 5 AM to report database activity on the server. The information appears as Database Activity Log entries in the Database - Usage and Database - Sizes views of the log file (LOG.NSF) and in the User Activity dialog box of individual databases. The Statlog task also reports database size statistics in the Database - Sizes view of the log file.

This table compares the information generated in each location.

Information provided	Appears in Database Activity Log entries	Appears in User Activity dialog box
Total number of times user and servers accessed, read, and wrote to a database in past 24 hours, past week, past month, and since the creation of the database. Includes activity for anonymous and authenticated Internet clients.	Yes	Yes
Inactive views (indicated by the size 0)	Yes	No
Names of users and servers who read and wrote documents, sorted by date. Includes activity for anonymous and authenticated Internet clients.	No	Yes

Tip In addition to viewing activity statistics reported by Statlog, you can evaluate database activity by creating a view that sorts documents by date. You can also create File Monitor documents as part of Event Monitor configuration. File Monitors report user activity for specific databases.

For information on File Monitor documents, the Event Monitor task, monitoring Web site activity, and monitoring database activity within a server cluster, see Lotus Domino Administrator Help.
