Event ID 1104 – The Security Log Is Now Full

Event ID 1104
Category Non Audit (Event Log)
Sub-category Other Events (Event Processing)
Type Success Audit
Description The security log is now full.

Whenever the Windows Security audit log becomes full, event ID 1104 is logged. If the upper limit of the Security Event Log file size is reached, and overwriting is not allowed (i.e., only manual clearance of logs is allowed), then event 1104 is triggered.

Why does event ID 1104 need to be monitored?

If the retention method for the Security Event log is set to the option "Do not overwrite events (Clear logs manually)", then the occurence of this event must be monitored carefully, as immediate actions will have to be performed, such as archiving the log, or clearing it.

Pro Tip:

With in-depth reports, real-time alerts, and options for activities like automatic archiving, ADAudit Plus handles all log related non-audit events, helping you meet your security, operational, and compliance needs with absolute ease.

Event 1104 applies to the following operating systems:
