Recurring Action Log

Each log message record contains the following data columns:
- . Date and time group for the event message.
- . Name of scheduled recurring action.
- . Result of the attempt to fire the action (success, failure, information, or cancel).
- . Message string. Denotes if action fired, was blacked out, or manually prevented by user intervention or WhatsUp Gold service shutdown.
