Microsoft Windows Event Viewer

Microsoft Windows Event Viewer provides information about program, security, and system events. For example, if an IBM® Cognos® Analytics service fails to start, this fact is recorded in the event log.

Microsoft Windows Event Viewer does not record information that is specific to operations or tasks performed in IBM Cognos Analytics. Consult the log files for these problems.

For information about how to use Windows Event Viewer, see the Windows help.
