Hyper-V-Compute | Events from the Host Compute Service (HCS) are collected here. The HCS is a low-level management API. |
Hyper-V-Config | This section is for anything that relates to virtual machine configuration files. If you have a missing or corrupt virtual machine configuration file – there will be entries here that tell you all about it. |
Hyper-V-Guest-Drivers | Look at this section if you are experiencing issues with VM integration components. |
Hyper-V-High-Availability | Hyper-V clustering-related events are collected in this section. |
Hyper-V-Hypervisor | This section is used for hypervisor specific events. You will usually only need to look here if the hypervisor fails to start – then you can get detailed information here. |
Hyper-V-StorageVSP | Events from the Storage Virtualization Service Provider. Typically you would look at these when you want to debug low-level storage operations for a virtual machine. |
Hyper-V-VID | These are events form the Virtualization Infrastructure Driver. Look here if you experience issues with memory assignment, e.g. dynamic memory, or changing static memory while the VM is running. |
Hyper-V-VMMS | Events from the virtual machine management service can be found here. When VMs are not starting properly, or VM migrations fail, this would be a good source to start investigating. |
Hyper-V-VmSwitch | These channels contain events from the virtual network switches. |
Hyper-V-Worker | This section contains events from the worker process that is used for the actual running of the virtual machine. You will see events related to startup and shutdown of the VM here. |
Hyper-V-Shared-VHDX | Events specific to virtual hard disks that can be shared between several virtual machines. If you are using shared VHDs this event channel can provide more detail in case of a failure. |
Hyper-V-VMSP | The VM security process (VMSP) is used to provide secured virtual devices like the virtual TPM module to the VM. |
Hyper-V-VfpExt | Events form the Virtual Filtering Platform (VFP) which is part of the Software Defined Networking Stack. |
VHDMP | Events from operations on virtual hard disk files (e.g. creation, merging) go here. |
