How to configure Usage Analysis Processing on a Web server that is running Windows SharePoint Services 3.0
To turn on Windows SharePoint Services usage logging in an Office SharePoint Server farm, you must first turn on Usage Analysis Processing in Windows SharePoint Services 3.0, and then turn on Advanced Usage Analysis Reporting service in Shared Services Administration. To do this, follow these steps:
 * 1) Click Start, point to All Programs, point to Administrative Tools, and then click SharePoint 3.0 Central Administration.
 * 2) On the Central Administration page, click Operations.
 * 3) On the Operations page, under Logging and Reporting, click Usage Analysis Processing.

The default location for the log file is \Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extension\12\Logs.

In general, use a number that is one to three times the number of database servers in your server farm, with a maximum number of 30 log files.
 * 1) In the Processing Settings section, click to select the Enable usage analysis processing check box.
 * 2) Under Run processing between these times daily, specify the range of times to start the usage analysis log processing.

Enable Advanced Usage Analysis Reporting in Office SharePoint Server 2007
After you have turned on Windows SharePoint Services usage logging in the Office SharePoint Server 2007 farm, the Shared Services Provider (SSP) administrators must turn on the Advanced Usage Analysis Reporting service. This lets the SSP administrators control the complexity of Usage Analysis Processing, and select whether or not reporting is enabled for search queries. To do this, follow these steps:
 * 1) On the Central Administration page, click Shared Services Administration, and then click the default Shared Services Provider.
 * 2) On the Shared Services Provider home page, under Office SharePoint Usage Reporting, click Usage reporting.
 * 3) On the Configure Advanced Usage Analysis Processing page, under Processing Settings, click the Enable advanced usage analysis processing check box.
 * 4) In the Search Query Logging section, click the Enable search query logging check box.
 * 5) Click OK.
