# Specify default usage analysis options
| About installation defaults
You use the Set Installation Defaults page in the Server Administration pages to specify default settings for your server. These policies are inherited by each virtual server and subweb unless the administrator for that virtual server or subweb changes the setting on the virtual server or site administration pages. You can set default settings for:
| Usage analysis
Specify whether to automatically delete the usage analysis data after a certain period of time, and whether to process the log file data for full days only. Web site administrators can change these settings by using the Site Administration page for their Web site.
| Mail settings
Specify the SMTP mail server to use and the from and reply-to addresses to use. Server administrators can change these settings by using the Change Configuration Settings page for their virtual server. Web site administrators can also change the from and reply-to addresses by using the Site Administration page for their Web site.
| Security settings
2. Specify whether to log authoring actions, require Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) for authoring and administration, or allow users to upload executable files. Server administrators can change these settings by using the Change Configuration Settings page for their virtual server. Note Installation defaults are not enforced. A Web site or virtual server administrator can change the settings from their defaults. On the Server Administration page, click Set installation defaults. In the Usage Analysis area, do any of the following:
   | To automatically delete usage information
   Select Automatically delete stored usage data after ___ months, and then type the number of months to store usage data before deleting it. Note This option is an ongoing option. For example, if you choose to delete usage data after two months, every month your data is checked and any data older than two months is deleted.
   | To restrict the usage processing to be done only for complete days
Select Process log file data for full days only. Note This option specifies that log file data is collected for a full day, from midnight of the previous day to midnight of the current day. Click Submit.
