I've not been able to stop the service, only kill it (using pskill). After doing this, I disabled the daily/monthly summaries from the Log Summaries tab under properties of the Report Jobs folder under Monitoring Configuration I'd really like to have the summarizing capabilities, but not at the cost of such extreme utilization. I think the dailysum.exe process is not intelligently written if it fails in such a manner on a corrupt flat log file. How much more work would it have really been to put in a few safeguards... - Umesh -----Original Message----- From: CISMIC [mailto:cismic@xxxxxxx] Sent: Thursday, December 31, 1987 10:18 PM To: [ISAserver.org Discussion List] Subject: [isalist] RE: Dailysum.exe http://www.ISAserver.org Thomas, What I do is actually remove it from scheduled tasks since I really don't use the reports from within ISA. What I have found out that once you remove it from the tasks the item won't run again. After rebooting the machine is when you can really perform the diagnostics on what doesn't run and clean up the corrupt files. There are some cool tools out on http://www.sysinternals.com that can be used to actually kill a running process with out having to reboot. But, I reboot anyway.

I think you have to shut it down forcefully.

It works well when you don't want to actually run the dailysum.exe. If you look under scheduled tasks you can actually stop the program from running. At least until you have things diagnosed.

But you still must remove the corrupt log file.

I just ran across a corrupt ISA log and Dailysum.exe started taking up about 50% cpu. Microsoft's solution is to merely kill the process and delete the offending log file. Please tell me that someone has got a better solution than this. - Umesh Joshi ------------------------------------------------------ List Archives: http://www.webelists.com/cgi/lyris.pl?enter=isalist ISA Server Newsletter: http://www.isaserver.org/pages/newsletter.asp ISA Server FAQ: http://www.isaserver.org/pages/larticle.asp?type=FAQ ------------------------------------------------------ Exchange Server Resource Site: http://www.msexchange.org/ Windows Security Resource Site: http://www.windowsecurity.com/ Windows 2000/NT Fax Solutions: http://www.ntfaxfaq.com ------------------------------------------------------ You are currently subscribed to this ISAserver.org Discussion List as: tshinder@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send a blank email to $subst('Email.Unsub') ------------------------------------------------------ List Archives: http://www.webelists.com/cgi/lyris.pl?enter=isalist ISA Server Newsletter: http://www.isaserver.org/pages/newsletter.asp ISA Server FAQ: http://www.isaserver.org/pages/larticle.asp?type=FAQ ------------------------------------------------------ Exchange Server Resource Site: http://www.msexchange.org/ Windows Security Resource Site: http://www.windowsecurity.com/ Windows 2000/NT Fax Solutions: http://www.ntfaxfaq.com ------------------------------------------------------ You are currently subscribed to this ISAserver.org Discussion List as: cismic@xxxxxxx To unsubscribe send a blank email to $subst('Email.Unsub') ------------------------------------------------------ List Archives: http://www.webelists.com/cgi/lyris.pl?enter=isalist ISA Server Newsletter: http://www.isaserver.org/pages/newsletter.asp ISA Server FAQ: http://www.isaserver.org/pages/larticle.asp?type=FAQ ------------------------------------------------------ Exchange Server Resource Site: http://www.msexchange.org/ Windows Security Resource Site: http://www.windowsecurity.com/ Windows 2000/NT Fax Solutions: http://www.ntfaxfaq.com ------------------------------------------------------ You are currently subscribed to this ISAserver.org Discussion List as: tshinder@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send a blank email to $subst('Email.Unsub') ------------------------------------------------------ List Archives: http://www.webelists.com/cgi/lyris.pl?enter=isalist ISA Server Newsletter: http://www.isaserver.org/pages/newsletter.asp ISA Server FAQ: http://www.isaserver.org/pages/larticle.asp?type=FAQ ------------------------------------------------------ Exchange Server Resource Site: http://www.msexchange.org/ Windows Security Resource Site: http://www.windowsecurity.com/ Windows 2000/NT Fax Solutions: http://www.ntfaxfaq.com ------------------------------------------------------ You are currently subscribed to this ISAserver.org Discussion List as: cismic@xxxxxxx To unsubscribe send a blank email to $subst('Email.Unsub') ------------------------------------------------------ List Archives: http://www.webelists.com/cgi/lyris.pl?enter=isalist ISA Server Newsletter: http://www.isaserver.org/pages/newsletter.asp ISA Server FAQ: http://www.isaserver.org/pages/larticle.asp?type=FAQ ------------------------------------------------------ Exchange Server Resource Site: http://www.msexchange.org/ Windows Security Resource Site: http://www.windowsecurity.com/ Windows 2000/NT Fax Solutions: http://www.ntfaxfaq.com ------------------------------------------------------ You are currently subscribed to this ISAserver.org Discussion List as: ubjoshi@xxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send a blank email to $subst('Email.Unsub')
