The Event Console is used as data source for Event Console related views. Since it is a dedicated process, it may be unreachable while the monitoring core of a site is reachable.

Previous versions treated a site as down once the Event Console was not running. This has now been changed. Sites in general are now still usable in the GUI, even when the Event Console is stopped.
