What functionality does the Puppet Enterprise console's Event Inspector provide?

The Event Inspector in the Puppet Enterprise console is designed to provide insights into the operational state of the nodes managed by Puppet. One of its key functionalities is to display recent failure information for nodes, which allows administrators to quickly identify and respond to issues related to configuration management. This includes details on failed resource applications, errors encountered during catalog application, and any other relevant failure events, making it an essential tool for troubleshooting and maintenance.

In contrast, the other choices do not align with the specific purpose of the Event Inspector. Detailed performance metrics pertain more to system monitoring rather than configuration events. Historical data on configuration changes focuses on the audit trail of what has changed over time, rather than highlighting immediate issues. Real-time system resource usage is related to monitoring the health and performance of nodes but does not specifically address the failures that the Event Inspector is intended to track. Thus, focusing on recent failure information is the primary function that the Event Inspector serves.
