13. Description Server

 
Event Log Explorer allows you to set a place where it will read event descriptions from.
By default Event Log Explorer reads event descriptions from the computer where the event log is located. Sometimes you may want to change the default location of the description server: when descriptions are not available from the default location or if getting the event descriptions from a remote server affect the performance.
To set the description server, select Log->Description server.
Default location - descriptions will be read from the default location (where the event log is located)
Local computer - descriptions will be read from the local computer (this ensures the best performance).
Another computer - descriptions will be read from a certain location.
Imaged computer - descriptions will be read from an imaged computer. This option is available only in Forensic Edition.
