Server Manager event logs include logs from AD DS and DNS servers.

• A. True
• B. False
• C. Not applicable
• D. Sometimes

Answer: (A)

Server Manager is designed to give a centralized view of the server’s roles and health. When AD DS and DNS Server roles are installed, events generated by those services are written to their respective Windows Event Logs—the Directory Service log for AD DS and the DNS Server log for DNS. Server Manager can surface these role-related events, either directly through its integrated Event Viewer view or by showing recent events tied to the installed roles. This lets you monitor domain controller and DNS health from one console. If those roles aren’t installed (or their logs are disabled), you wouldn’t see those AD DS or DNS events in Server Manager.
