The events displayed when you select a service group or monitored service are displayed in the same way as the service performance events.
Events are displayed with the most recent at the top. If you have narrowed down the displayed monitored targets by executing a search in the Services area, selecting a service group will display information for only the monitored targets that are shown in the search results.
