SYMPTOMSLarge multi-site configurations may have two or more sites set up under different Log Data Sources configured under Usage Import Server Manager. Visit counts may appear to be higher than expected. CAUSE
Multiple site Log Data Sources containing a multi-site configuration can be imported. A single visit that crosses the sites can be identified as the same visit. This occurs when [ASCII 147] stitches [ASCII 148] log files together during the import process. By default, external references included in a hit result in additional visit counts. RESOLUTIONIf the external references are actually local, then these must be specified in Usage Import Server Manager in order to assure that the visit counts provided by Report Writer are not inflated. MORE INFORMATIONExample Configuration in Usage Import Server Manager LDS1Server1Site1: WWW1.Org.Co.com Org.Co.Com LDS2Server2Note: Because the visit count should be performed across Site1 and Site2 as a single Virtual Site, the Home page URLs must include both.Site2: WWW2.Org.Co.Com Org.Co.Com Perform the following steps:
