Subscriptions

This category lists down the event subscriptions created with remote computers. Here, we can create/edit/disable event subscriptions, check the runtime status, and forcibly run subscription jobs.

When we open up an event, it gives different levels of information, such as the following:

  • A general description about the problem
  • The log file name
  • The event source to indicate where it came from
  • The event ID number
  • The level of the error (critical, information, or warning)
  • The username of the error owner
  • Links to TechNet, KB, or other sources to get more information about the event
  • The time of the event
  • Hostname of the source computer

In the previous section, I explained Applications and Services Logs and the types of data available under it. There are a few different Applications and Services Logs related to the AD service.
