Quick question on alerts

[euskills]

Hello,

I am trying to set up alerting for all the backup jobs that we have in our offices. I have opened up the Alert console and configured SMTP server, address etc and when I send a test e-mail it works fine.

However, we don't get any e-mail alerts from any of the backup jobs - do I need to configure each backup job or can I set something centrally?

Thanks in advance

Brian.

Hi,
In options you'll need to configure each backup job on what kind of info you want (Failed, Canceled, Successful)



I hope you find this post helpful.

So what purpose does the Alerting console have then?, as each Activity log is stating it sent an SMTP alert (we don't recieve any e-mails)

We have over 100 jobs company wide - its going to take ages to amend each job
