Usage and Health Data Collection Proxy Stopped in SharePoint 2013
Problem: Usage and Health Data Collection Service Application collects Data for Health Monitoring and usage Analytics Service. We found the Usage and Health Data Collection Proxy status in “Stopped” state, after deploying SharePoint 2013 to a new environment, from:
- Central Administration >> Application Management
- Manage Service Applications Page
Solution:
If you see Usage and Health Data Collection Proxy in the “Stopped” state, you can start the Usage and Health Data Collection Proxy using these two lines of PowerShell Command:
Add-PSSnapin Microsoft.SharePoint.PowerShell -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue
$UsageAppProxy = Get-SPServiceApplicationProxy | Where {$_.TypeName -eq "Usage and Health Data Collection Proxy"}
$UsageAppProxy.Provision()
This should get your Usage and Health Data Collection Proxy started!
