Description

If i setup a container with limits on cpu count and memory:

C:\>docker inspect testcontainer --format "Name: {{.Name}} | CpuCount: {{.HostConfig.CpuCount}} | Memory: {{json .HostConfig.Memory}} | Isolation: {{.HostConfig.Isolation}}"
Name: /testcontainer| CpuCount: 4 | Memory: 4294967296 | Isolation: process

Are the throttle/kill/restart events logged anywhere?

Research direction

Start with the shown docker inspect command and its CPU and memory limit fields, then review the Windows Containers documentation and event or logging guidance. Determine whether throttle, kill, and restart events are logged and identify where each can be found; done means providing a maintainer-confirmed answer with those locations and conditions.
