The Activity log: who did what
What this is about
The Activity tab records everything that happens to your server: who started or stopped it, which files were edited, backups, schedule runs, and console commands. If something changed and you don't know why, look here first.
| Column | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Actor | Who did it: you, a subuser, or System (the panel itself, e.g. a finished backup or a schedule) |
| Event | What happened (see below) |
| IP | Where the action came from |
| When | How long ago. Hover for the exact time. |
