Lena found that the internal event logs were appearing out of order because the system often starts displaying entries from the moment a server reboots, pushing the earlier morning logs to the end of the list. Mark requested a helper tool for the dashboard that can pinpoint the exact position of a specific log ID within these shifted sequences. For example, if the logs are listed as 4, 5, 6, 7, 0, 1, 2, searching for ID 0 should return 4, representing its current place in the sequence.
