default setting Description
profilesdir Specifies the directory where all profiles are kept.
Note: If you change this location, only new profiles appear in the new directory. Profiles created before the change remain in the original location unless you copy them.
Values: By default, the value is (UNIX) ./wtm_wtx/datfiles/profiles (NT) .\wtm_wtx\datfiles\profiles
Enter ./ (UNIX) or .\ (NT) to indicate that the directory is relative to the installation directory.
Note: The Reporting Server provides information on domain groupings in the Organization Breakdown table and graph. The following settings define the domains associated with each domain grouping. They can also be defined through the GUI. See “Defining domain groups” on page 133 for details.

maxtopcount This option is not currently used. Value: It is set to 500
maxthreads Specifies the number of threads which are allocated to reverse DNS (domain name server) lookups. The threads are divided among the number of concurrent analyses.
Default Values for NT= 40
Default Values for Linux, Solaris = 8 maxcachedcount This option is not currently used.
dnscachelifespan Specifies the number of days that DNS entries stored in the database are valid.
Default value = 30.
dnsthreads Specifies the number of threads available to perform DNS lookups on the entries in the lookup queue. The more threads working on DNS resolution, the quicker the process should go, if there are enough entries in the lookup queue to work on. However, if there are too many threads for the size of the lookup queue, many of the threads are not used and remain idle. Making this number too high may overtax system resources.
Values: The following are defaults: (Solaris 2.5) 8
(Solaris 2.6) 16 (Linux) 1 (NT) 20
dnscacheentries Specifies the number of entries in the DNS cache. Once an entry in the DNS lookup queue has been cached, it is saved here until the maximum number of entries is reached. If you are running extremely large log files, or log files with a high incidence of unique IPs, you should increase the size of the cache for better performance on subsequent analyses. Each entry takes about 50 bytes; making the cache too large may cause excessive swapping.
Values: The default is 50000.
dnstimeout Specifies the maximum number of seconds given to perform each DNS lookup. Once this number is reached, the IP is cached whether it is translated or not, and the record is ready for processing. Decreasing this value can improve
performance significantly if there are a large number of IPs that cannot be translated. However, once an IP has been cached, it is not be looked up again which can affect the accuracy of reports.
Values: The default is 5.
downloadtypes Specifies the file type extensions that are associated with downloaded files and when the file type is included in reports. This data is included in the Top Downloaded Files table and graph.
Values:
0—Includes the file type if it is from a script or dynamic page.
1—Includes the file type only if it is not from a script or dynamic page.
2—Always includes the file type.
Example: {exe,0} {com,0} {zip,0} {pdf,0} {arc,0} {bin,0} {sit,0} {tar,0} {gz,0} {z,0} {arj,0}
documenttypes Specifies the file type extensions that are counted as document files and when the file type is included in reports. These are reported in the Most/Least Requested Pages table and graph, and the Top Entry/Exit Pages table and graph.
0—Includes the file type if it is from a script or dynamic page.
1—Includes the file type only if it is not from a script or dynamic page.
2—Always includes the file type.
Example: {htm,0} {txt,0} {mdl,0} {shtml,0} {htmls,0} {html,0} {htp,0} {htpl,0} {dbm,0} {asp,0} {sht,0} {cfm,0}
cachedtime Specifies the number of seconds of inactivity before the visitor session is timed-out.
Values: integer. The default value, 1800, corresponds to 30 minutes of inactivity.
titlecachesize If the NoHTMLTitles option is disabled (set to 0), specify the size of the cache for page titles here.
Values: integer. The default value is 1000.
titlecachelifespan If the NoHTMLTitles option is disabled (set to 1), specify the maximum number of seconds entries are saved in the cache.
This option is typically used for sites that change often. Values: integer. The default value is 259200 (3 days).
nohtmltitles Defines whether the titles of html pages are looked up and included in reports.
Values:
0—Includes the titles of html pages in reports. This is the default.
1—Excludes the titles of html page titles in reports. Tip: Setting this option to 1 may significantly reduce the time
it takes to analyze the log file.
IncludeContentGroups Allows you to specify Content Group definitions to apply to profiles. Each Content Group definition is assigned a unique identifier. The unique id is defined in the ProfileID option located in:
(UNIX)
<InstallDir>\wtm_wtx\datfiles\contentgroups\default.ini (NT) <InstallDir>/wtm_wtx/datfiles/contentgroups/ default.ini
Values: Enter the unique ids to use here. Separate multiple ids with a space. By default, this option specifies all definitions, indicated by an asterisk (*).
IncludeQueryStrings Allows you to specify URL Parameter Analysis definitions to apply to profiles. Each URL Parameter Analysis definition is assigned a unique identifier. This unique id is defined by the ProfileID option which is located in:
(UNIX)
<InstallDir>\wtm_wtx\datfiles\DynamicPages\default.ini (NT) <InstallDir>/wtm_wtx/datfiles/DynamicPages/ default.ini
Values: Enter the unique ids to use here. Separate multiple ids with a space. Use an asterisk (*) to specify all URL Parameter Analysis definitions.
By default, this option specifies all definitions, indicated by an asterisk (*).
IncludePathAnalysisProfi les
Allows you to specify Path Analysis definitions to apply to profiles. Each Path Analysis definition is assigned a unique identifier. This unique id is defined in the ProfileID option located in:
(UNIX)
<InstallDir>\wtm_wtx\datfiles\PathsAnalysis\default.ini (NT) <InstallDir>/wtm_wtx/datfiles/PathsAnalysis/ default.ini.
Values: Enter the unique ids to use here. Separate multiple ids with a space. Use an asterisk (*) to specify all Path Analysis definitions.
By default, this option specifies all definitions, indicated by an asterisk (*).

Values:
1—Applies the definitions to all profiles. 0—Uses the values defined in the profile.
useglobalquerystrings URL Parameter Analysis definitions can be applied to all profiles or only to those that you chose.
Values:
1—Applies the definitions to all profiles 0—Uses the values defined in the profile.
reports
The settings in the reports section define the number of reports that are saved for each interval by default. Once this limit is reached, the oldest report is deleted to make room for the new one.
When determining how many reports to store, consider how much disk space you want to devote to reports and how long you want to save them. A report using the Complete Summary template as it was installed needs 350-400KB. These settings correspond to the dailyreport, weeklyreport, monthlyreport, quarterlyreport, and yearlyreport settings in the [profile] section of the wtm_wtx.ini file.
As an administrator, you can modify these setting on a profile basis. Non- administrators can modify these settings if the histoverride option in the profiles section is set to 1.
Note: If an option is not present, if it has a value of 0, or if it is blank, reports are not deleted.
IncludeURLReplacements Specifies the URL Search and Replace definitions to apply to profiles. Each URL Replacement definition has a unique identifier. This unique id is defined in the ProfileID option located in:
(UNIX) <InstallDir>\datfiles\urlreplacement\default.ini (NT) <InstallDir>/wtm_wdw/datfiles/urlreplacement/ default.ini
Values: Enter the unique ids to use here. Separate multiple ids with a space. Use an asterisk (*) to specify all URL Replacement definitions. By default, this option specifies all definitions, indicated by an asterisk (*).
