I'm trying to configure Windows event forwarding on domain controllers to a subscription on a different server. I'm getting the following error message.

I'm running the following command which gives it the correct permissions but for this to work i have to restart the domain controller, i have tested this for one and after the reboot the error is gone however i would like to avoid this. Is there a serviceI can restart to address this issue without rebooting the domain controller?

wevtutil set-log Microsoft-Windows-SMBServer/Audit /ca:O:BAG:SYD:(A;;0x5;;;BA)(A;;0x1;;;S-1-5-32-573)

servername Error - Last retry time: 02/11/2020 22:03:58. Code (0x138C): <f:ProviderFault provider="Event Forwarding Plugin" path="C:\Windows\system32\wevtfwd.dll" xmlns:f="http://schemas.microsoft.com/wbem/wsman/1/wsmanfault"><t:ProviderError xmlns:t="http://schemas.microsoft.com/wbem/wsman/1/windows/EventLog">Windows Event Forward plugin can't read any event from the query since the query returns no active channel.

    issue resolved, i ran the following command to grant permissions to the SMBServer log on all DCs

    wevtutil set-log Microsoft-Windows-SMBServer/Audit /ca:O:BAG:SYD:(A;;0x5;;;BA)(A;;0x1;;;S-1-5-32-573)(A;;0x1;;;S-1-5-20)

    Now i have another issue, getting event ID 111, will ask in a different question.

    Hello, the command you proposed solved the problem well, but by adding several IDs events, I find the same error. Do you have any idea about the problem ?
