Discussion

The Horizon Connection Server stores application level events and actions in a dedicated database rather than log files. This makes day-to-day administration easier while off-loading these events to a separate system for resiliency. An events database is configured after Connection Server deployment. It must only be configured one time, even in the case of multiple grouped Connection Servers, as the configuration will be applied to the other servers automatically. Satisfies: SRG-APP-000089-AS-000050, SRG-APP-000091-AS-000052, SRG-APP-000092-AS-000053, SRG-APP-000095-AS-000056, SRG-APP-000096-AS-000059, SRG-APP-000097-AS-000060, SRG-APP-000098-AS-000061, SRG-APP-000099-AS-000062, SRG-APP-000100-AS-000063, SRG-APP-000101-AS-000072, SRG-APP-000266-AS-000168, SRG-APP-000343-AS-000030, SRG-APP-000495-AS-000220, SRG-APP-000499-AS-000224, SRG-APP-000503-AS-000228, SRG-APP-000504-AS-000229, SRG-APP-000505-AS-000230, SRG-APP-000509-AS-000234
