Resolution:
The fix that was pushed out to correct for the security log full error has been working as expected. Again a restart of your computer should also trigger this fix to happen if you are still encountering this issue. If issues persist, please reach out to the LTS Help Desk at (715) 836-5711.
The root cause of this issue was determined and has been remediated.
Original message:
Early this morning a security log full error began appearing on many UW-Eau Claire managed Windows computers. LTS is investigating the root cause of this issue, but an update to a piece of software may have caused a more substantial amount of security log entries to be generated that went beyond the allowed threshold.
A fix has been pushed out to modify these settings further. If you have the security log full error at login, please restart your computer and try to login again. If you continue to have this error, please reach out to the LTS Help Desk at (715) 836-5711 for further instructions.
