VBR managed Veeam Agent backup success/failure emails

Post by jon2819287 »

So far, I am only getting emails that tell me whether the policy was able to update the Backup job configuration on a target computer. example:
[Success] Backup Policy: Full Machine Backups (2 objects)
winserver Success Backup job configuration has been updated.

I would prefer not to receive the above emails at all.

What I want to know, via email, is whether backups have been successful. Whether a good backup was actually created, like I get from Veeam Agents that aren't managed by VBR. Example:
Name Status Start time End time Size Read Transferred Duration Details
SERVER Success 00:30:03 01:06:03 931.4 GB 5.9 GB 2.5 GB 0:35:59

How can I get that kind of information emailed?

I've currently set it to send notifications in the Agent Backup Job > Storage > Notifications
checked Send daily e-mail report to the following recipients, use custom notifications settings specified below, checked notify on success/warning/error, and checked to Warn me if no backups were created in the last [3] days.

Thank you,
Jon

ps, these are all windows computers.

Hello Jon

Job session reports for "Managed by Agent" machines will be send to you every 24 hours. You can either configure the time in the global notification setting or in the policy properties (Agent Backup Job > Storage > Notifications).
If you still don't receive those daily mails, please investigate with our customer support. Don't forget to provide me with the case number.

Best,
Fabian
