Configure Alerts to Notify Policy Administrators of Policy Failures

  • Άρθρο

Applies to: SQL Server

When Policy-Based Management policies are executed in one of the three automated evaluation modes, if a policy violation occurs, a message is written to the event log. To be notified when this message is written to the event log, you can create an alert to detect the message and perform an action. The alert should detect the messages as shown in the following table.

Execution mode Message number
On change: prevent

(if automatic)		 34050
On change: prevent

(if On demand)		 34051
On schedule 34052
On change 34053

To set up an alert to respond to the Policy-Based Management error messages, see the following topics:

Permissions

When policies are evaluated on demand, they execute in the security context of the user. To write to the error log, the user must have ALTER TRACE permissions or be a member of the sysadmin fixed server role. Policies that are evaluated by a user that has less privileges will not write to the event log, and will not fire an alert.

The automated execution modes execute as a member of the sysadmin role. This allows the policy to write to the error log and raise an alert.

Additional Considerations About Alerts

Be aware of the following additional considerations about alerts:

  • Alerts are raised only for policies that are enabled. Because On demand policies cannot be enabled, alerts are not raised for policies that are executed on demand.

  • If the action you want to take includes sending an e-mail message, you must configure a mail account. We recommend that you use Database Mail. For more information about how to set up Database Mail, see Create a Database Mail Account.
