8.3.3 Managing Audit Logs 
You can track trends in Windows Server 2003 by archiving event logs and comparing logs from different 
periods. Viewing trends can be used to determine resource use and to plan for growth. Windows Server 
2003 also allows you to control the size of each audit log and to specify the action that Windows Server 
2003 takes when the log becomes full. These can be configured in the 
PROPERTIES

log. To configure the settings for logs:

START
 button to display the Start Menu

size. 
 
The action that you can specify for when a log file becomes full are: 
• Overwrite Events As Needed. This setting requires no maintenance but you could lose information if 
the log becomes full before you archive it.
• Overwrite Events Older Than [number] Days. This is the default setting. You must select the number 
of days for this option; the default is seven. You could lose information if the log becomes full before 
you archive it. 
• Do Not Overwrite Events (Clear Log Manually). With this option no security log entries will be 
overwritten therefore there will be no information loss. It however requires that you to clear the log 
manually. When the log becomes full, Windows Server 2003 will stop.
