Create an Operator

Applies to: SQL Server Azure SQL Managed Instance

Important

On Azure SQL Managed Instance, most, but not all SQL Server Agent features are currently supported. See Azure SQL Managed Instance T-SQL differences from SQL Server for details.

This topic describes how to configure a user to receive notifications about Microsoft SQL Server Agent jobs in SQL Server by using SQL Server Management Studio or Transact-SQL.

Before You Begin

Limitations and Restrictions

  • The Pager and net send options will be removed from SQL Server Agent in a future version of Microsoft SQL Server. Avoid using these features in new development work, and plan to modify applications that currently use these features.

  • Note that SQL Server Agent must be configured to use Database Mail to send e-mail and pager notifications to operators. For more information, see Assign Alerts to an Operator.

  • SQL Server Management Studio provides an easy, graphical way to manage jobs, and is the recommended way to create and manage the job infrastructure.

    Workday begin
    Select the time of day after which SQL Server Agent sends messages to the pager.

    Net send
    Notify this operator using net send.

  4. When finished creating the new operator, click OK.

Using Transact-SQL

To create an operator

  1. In Object Explorer, connect to an instance of Database Engine.

  2. On the Standard bar, click New Query.

  3. Copy and paste the following example into the query window and click Execute.

    -- sets up the operator information for user 'danwi.'
-- The operator is enabled.   
-- SQL Server Agent sends notifications by pager 
-- from Monday through Friday from 8 A.M. to 5 P.M.  
USE msdb ;  
GO  

EXEC dbo.sp_add_operator  
    @name = N'Dan Wilson',  
    @enabled = 1,  
    @email_address = N'danwi',  
    @pager_address = N'5551290AW@pager.Adventure-Works.com',  
    @weekday_pager_start_time = 080000,  
    @weekday_pager_end_time = 170000,  
    @pager_days = 62 ;  
GO
