Feature Request: Notify if...

[inregouser]

Hello!

Is it possible to get notifications from Veeam when a backjob fails silently,

For example we had configured two backup jobs.

One of them was pointing to the other job & was scheduled to start when that job was finnished.

The second backup job was pointing to the first one and set to start when that job was finnished.

So both jobs were waiting for each other to finnish before they would start, leading to no jobs are running.

This would be a silent failure due to missconfiguration. But is there a way to get notifications if something likes this happens?

Is there a way to trigger an alert when a job have for example not been running for the last X days?

Hello

Our recommendation is not to chain backup jobs (After this job - Scheduling). One of the side effects is your situation. Better to use max task configuration on proxy or repositories to optimize the performance.

You can use Veeam One Reports to get a RPO Report:

If you are a service provider, you can also use the VM without backup alarm.
