My goal is to create a task attached to event 1103 that warns users when the event log is about to become full. According to this website https://kb.eventtracker.com/evtpass/evtPages/EventId_1103_Microsoft-Windows-Eventlog_64965.asp this event is supposed to show up after the security log reaches a certain treshold.

Does this event even exist? If so how do i find it or force it to show up when my security log fills up? Alternatively is there any other way of accomplishing this task?

    @Nowtside
    Hi,
    I did not find more information about event ID 1103, it seems to apply to server 2008.
    While event ID 1104 applies to windows10, if the maximum size of Security Event Log file was reached and event log retention method is: “Do not overwrite events (Clear logs manually)”.
    For your reference:
    https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/security/threat-protection/auditing/event-1104

    Hope above information can help you.
