Solved: How do you set an email alert for failed backups on CUCM6.x?

Hi all,

I have CUCM Business Edition 6.1.4

Our Backup's (configured within Disaster Recovery System) have been failing for weeks and we have only just noticed. I would like to enable email alerts for successful and failed backups - is this possible? If so how?

I've looked through RTMT but can't find anything obvious.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

Chris

In RTMT go to Alert Central. Then choose System->Tools->Alert->Config Email Server. Enter your email relay server here. Then select the alert you want sent to you (CiscoDRFFailure) and right click on it. Select Set Alert/Properties. Click on Next until you get to Frequency & Schedule. Enable email and configure the Trigger Alert Action. You can either edit the Default to add your email address (but then all alerts with Alert Action of Default will be sent to you) or you can add a new Alert Action. Hope this helps!
