    Hi all, 

    I have enabled sql job monitoring but I am looking for a way to make the alerts come in as critical.  I need to do this for at least some set of my jobs so I can bring them into our standard notification routines (email on critical events).  I figured this would be a simple override but I guess not.  I already show alert severity as critical yet the alert comes in as warning.

    Help?

     

    Thanks

    Ahh well, I guess I found it.  I am overriding the following:

    Generates alert: True

    Alert on State: Warning

    Alert priority: High

    Alert Severity: Error

     

    The last two are what I believe did it.  They are not different than the 'preoverriden' values but they seem to be working.

    One thing you may notice is that the alert description for these is basically useless, especially if you forward alerts to a ticketing system and the end user isn't using the SCOM console.  They say something like, "Please see the alert context for details."  Other than that, they seem to work well.
