Failed Backup Notification

Top  Previous  Next

In our example we will backup the following:

 

1.The local C drive
2.The network share \\FILESERVER\DOCUMENTS
3.The information store on server EXCH-SRV1

 

To accomplish our goal we will need to setup the following in EventSentry:

 

1.Notification Target (e.g. Email): You will be notified through this type of notification if the backup didn't work.
2.Filter Package: We will place all filters into its own separate filter package.
2.Threshold Filter: The threshold filter is necessary to determine that all three backup items (see above) ran.
3.Recurring Event Filter: The recurring event filter will log an error if the threshold filter does not determine that the backup ran successfully.
4.Notification Filter: Usually already setup, will forward the previously logged error via email.
