PAStore Engine failed to apply local registry storage IPsec policy on the computer

PAStore Engine failed to apply local registry storage IPsec policy on the computer.

Policy:     %1
Error Code:     %2


Event 5461 indicates that the Policy Agent (PAStore) was unable to apply the IPsec security settings stored in the local registry. This usually happens because of a permissions conflict, a corrupted registry key, or a Group Policy (GPO) collision.

Auditing:     Conditional

Enable only when monitoring IPsec policy application health across managed machines.


Volume:     Low

On any healthy machine this event should never appear. When it does, it is almost always in a cluster alongside 5457 and 5459 on domain machines, or immediately after a single 5460 failure on standalone machines.
