Recurring Action Log

Recurring Action Log records WhatsUp Gold activity related to scheduled or recurring actions. It is useful for validating action completion, actions preempted due to a blackout period, and so on.

Each log message record contains the following data columns:

Date. Date and time for the event message.
Recurring Action. Name of scheduled recurring action.
Category. Result of the attempt to fire the action (success, failure, information, or cancel).
Details. Message string. Denotes if action fired, was blacked out, or manually prevented by user intervention or WhatsUp Gold service shutdown.

Fetch and filter log data

Choose time constraints. Choose specific windows for log data, reduce by date range, or choose Last Polled for the latest.
