Historical Data and Reports

ORDSwatch keeps a history of your instances' health and events, so you can answer "was this instance actually reliable last month" rather than only seeing current status.

What's tracked

• Health history — periodic health check results over time
• Status change events — every up/down/degraded transition, always recorded (never sampled away)
• Process events — start/stop/restart actions and their outcomes

Retention by plan

Raw, per-check history is retained for a period based on your plan. After that window, only hourly rollups (used for longer-range uptime trend charts) are kept, for a longer period, before being purged.

Detailed log history (as opposed to health/event history) is opt-in and volume-limited by plan — enable it under History → Log Retention if you want it stored rather than just streamed live (see Alerts and Logs).

Viewing uptime and events

Go to an instance's History tab to see:

• Uptime percentage over a selectable window (24h / 7d / 30d / custom, bounded by your plan's retention)
• A timeline of status-change events with timestamps
• A chart of health check results over the selected window

This view is available on Starter and above; Free plan shows current status only, without historical charts.

Exporting

Where available, use History → Export to download event history as CSV for your own reporting or compliance records.
