Setting up event subscriptions
Event Viewer contains lots of different event entries. It can be a few thousand events per day. Even if every event provides some useful information, we do not need to go through each and every one when we are troubleshooting a particular application or performing a service audit. There are specific events relevant to each server role, application, service, and system component. On some occasions, when we audit or troubleshoot, we need to review events on multiple computers. Event Viewer only allows us to connect to one computer at a given time. It can be a local computer or remote computer. Event subscriptions allow us to collect event logs from remote computers and review them on one console.
