Create an Alert Using an Error Number

  • Makale

Applies to: SQL Server

Important

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

This topic describes how to create a Microsoft SQL Server Agent alert occurs in SQL Server that will be raised when an error of a specific number occurs by using SQL Server Management Studio or Transact-SQL.

Before You Begin

Limitations and Restrictions

  • SQL Server Management Studio provides an easy, graphical way to manage the entire alerting system and is the recommended way to configure an alert infrastructure.

  • Events generated with xp_logevent occur in the master database. Therefore, xp_logevent does not trigger an alert unless the @database_name for the alert is 'master' or NULL.

Security

Permissions

By default, only members of the sysadmin fixed server role can execute sp_add_alert.
