  • Site bandwidth usage, sorted by time-of-day and protocol type, which is retained for an extended period of time


[edit] What we can do with this data

  • View fancy graphs generated via cPanel modules (Webalizer, Awstats, Error logs, Bandwidth, Latest Visitors, etc.)
  • Periodically (but not obsessively) view this data to check that the site is operating properly
  • Reprocess this data as needed
