Example or use case
Example: Reviewing system activities
An administrator wants to trace when users last made changes to VM templates. She opens the System → Activities section and filters by the object "VM templates". She can then see exactly which user performed which action and when.
Notes / Special considerations
- The System section is generally only visible to users with elevated permissions.
- Changes to global settings affect all users.
- Tasks and activities can be used to analyze problems or monitor system health.
- Logging is continuous – older entries may be automatically deleted after defined retention periods.
