Robert - As you go through your professional life administering TSM, keep
one
         thing in mind: the Summary table is unreliable.  It has
historically
been unreliable.  As testament, see the many postings from customers who
have
wasted their time trying to get reliable data from it.

As we keep saying: Use the TSM accounting records as your principal source
of
data for usage statistics.  That's what they are there for, and they
reliably
contain solid, basic data about sessions.  Beyond that, use the Activity
Log,
the Events table, and client backup logs.
