MessageStats Reports Node

This node launches the MessageStats Reports in the right pane. MessageStats Reports are a web-based reporting component that is hosted on an IIS server.

For more information, see Using the MessageStats Reports Console .

Support Node

The Support node provides links to additional resources to help you optimize your MessageStats use. You can use the links to access our self-service support portal where you can check articles in the Knowledge Base, view how-to videos, get the latest software downloads, and share information in the Messaging community.

Regions Node

Once you have enumerated your Exchange organization topology, you can group Exchange servers into more meaningful groups called regions. Regions allow you to sort and group MessageStats usage reports based on a logical structure that more closely matches that of your enterprise. You can also distribute the gathering load by running gathering tasks against regions.

You can create regions that contain a group of Exchange servers. Regions allow you to create gathering tasks that are based on geography, business units, or any other grouping method applicable to your enterprise.

Creating Regions

You can create new regions or add Exchange servers to a region at any time. All servers added to a region must be in the same Exchange organization.

1
Right-click the Regions node under the MessageStats Server.

Right-click the server, select Add to Region, and then select the region.
