    Event log full of ESENT event id 916


    I've seen this discussed several times but nothing lately and nothing saying what to do about it.

    Multiple times per hour - anything from 1 to 5 (so far) I get the following event logged:
    Log Name: Application
    Source: ESENT
    Date: 12/29/2017 10:27:21 AM
    Event ID: 916
    Task Category: General
    Level: Information
    Keywords: Classic
    User: N/A
    Computer: Puget-116877
    Description:
    svchost (3644,G,0) The beta feature EseDiskFlushConsistency is enabled in ESENT due to the beta site mode settings 0x800000.
    Event Xml:
    <Event xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/win/2004/08/events/event">
    <System>
    <Provider Name="ESENT" />
    <EventID Qualifiers="0">916</EventID>
    <Level>4</Level>
    <Task>1</Task>
    <Keywords>0x80000000000000</Keywords>
    <TimeCreated SystemTime="2017-12-29T18:27:21.128090100Z" />
    <EventRecordID>1695</EventRecordID>
    <Channel>Application</Channel>
    <Computer>Puget-116877</Computer>
    <Security />
    </System>
    <EventData>
    <Data>svchost</Data>
    <Data>3644,G,0</Data>
    <Data>
    </Data>
    <Data>EseDiskFlushConsistency</Data>
    <Data>ESENT</Data>
    <Data>0x800000</Data>
    </EventData>
    </Event>

    About 37% of Application event records s on my PC are this record.

    I see no problems on my PC that I can relate to the events so I doubt they are indicating a major problem, but they certainly clutter up the log making it more difficult to find significant event records. So I've got a few questions.


    1. Does everybody get these or are they specific to my hardware/software/whatever environment?
    2. What is EseDiskFlushConsistency this function" Is it something that can be disabled?
    3. Is there any way to block the recording of these records or to do a mass deletion of them?

    Not sure about disabling that log in Event Viewer, but you can clear the Event Viewer - Clear All Event Logs in Event Viewer in Windows Performance Maintenance Tutorials

    I saw that but it didn't provide much advice except "I wouldn't worry too much about it".

    I notice that the timing of the events reported by one person doesn't match mine at all. Mine seem to have no timing relationship with each other.

    I'd rather not clear all the events. That would make it really hard to find the important ones. I couldn't tell whether filering first and doing a Clear would delete just the filtered records or all of them so I think I'll live with the records.

    Hi,

    svchost (3644,G,0) The beta feature EseDiskFlushConsistency is enabled in ESENT due to the beta site mode settings
    That's what matters but there's no way I can think of to stop it though. It's informational and pretty harmless and a coding error it seems.

    Cheers,

    It's just an informational entry. It does not indicate any kind of error condition. Ignore it for now and eventually MS will fix it or someone will come up with a way to get rid of it.

    I had hundreds of them in my Event Viewer as well. I just cleaned the entire Event Viewer logs since my system is running well and is not having any problems. I've not had any since 2:19PM when I cleared it.
