Remarks

sp_add_operator must be run from the msdb database.

Your e-mail system must have an e-mail-to-pager capability if you want to use paging.

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

Permissions

This stored procedure is owned by the db_owner role. You can grant EXECUTE permissions for any user, but these permissions may be overridden during a SQL Server upgrade.
