8.- Logs and alerts
Using the Logs module you will be able to query and rotate all the logs of the services in the system. A unified query form exists to filter and understand the events in the logs without having to learn their format.
Unified logs show information over a period of time allowing to review the service behavior.
These logs allow you to create events and alerts to inform system administrator on how the server is working.
