Hello, after installing an Exchange 2000 Cluster in an
existing email organization we've detected a lot of
security events id 578 on the DCs (more than six per
second).

The company is logging Success Audit for Priviledge Use
based on business reasons... They "need" to maintain this
policy (if possible...).

Before installing the cluster the company's security logs
reached 100 Mb per week, now it's reaching this limit in
hours.

1300 mailboxes and public folders were moved from a member
server to the cluster.

Is this behaviour normal on an Exchange 2000 cluster ???

Here's a snapshot of an event:

Event Type: Success Audit
