How to create an Event using Powershell (over event id 1000)

If using EventCreate or other tools, you may face off the event id 1000 limit.

You may use the following powershell to create whatever event id you want (the only limit is the Windows default):

_

$evt=new-object System.Diagnostics.Eventlog(“Application”)

$evt.Source=”TestEventSource”

$evtNumber=6001

$evtDescription=”Test Event Description”

$infoevent=[System.Diagnostics.EventLogEntryType]::Warning

$evt.WriteEntry($evtDescription,$infoevent,$evtNumber)
