Reviewing service activity with the event log

Event logs keep track of events related to a service. With the appropriate user role and permissions you can use event logs to determine which service-level changes were made and by whom. For example, you can use them to see who activated the most recent version of a service and view recent service configuration setting changes.

TIP
