info

If you modify PowerShell Preference Variables then above information will be less valid

LogLevel Precedence

LogLevel precedence helps you to configure which messages you want to log. Example - If you configure LogLevel property as information for Console provider then Console provider will ignore all the messages which has id value less than information log level's id. In above table information has id 2 so, "verbose" and "debug" log messages will get ignored.
