Is the Low disk space event id 2013 write to event viewer in server 2019 deprecated?

Question

I have a new server 2019 install, (virtual) installed an e drive, installed the registry entries HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanmanServer\Parameters LowDiskspace and Diskspacethreshold as suggested, then, as a test, filled the E drive to under 7 percent with no entries in the event viewer. This was in response to a drive filling up and shutting down the server with no entries in the event viewer log. I have looked on line for answers, and most of them show the same issue.

We did have this running correctly under windows server 2008 with LEM monitoring the event log to let us know when the drive was at 10 percent. We upgraded to windows server 2019 and did not realize this was not working until a drive was filled and shutdown the server.

Hello,

You can try if below registry helps on the disk event id related registry change about HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanmanServer after upgrade from 2008 to Server 2019:

1. Examine the AutoShareServer and AutoShareWks registry values to make sure that they are not set to 0:
2. Click Start, click Run, type regedit, and then press ENTER.
3. Locate and then click the following registry subkey: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanmanServer\Parameters
4. If the AutoShareServer and AutoShareWks DWORD values in the LanmanServer\Parameters subkey are configured with a value data of 0, change that value to 1.

Note

If these values do not exist, you do not have to create them because the default behavior is to automatically create the administrative shares.

5. Quit Registry Editor.
6. Restart the computer.
