ReadyDR jobs don't send status email
I have several ReadyDR and non-ReadyDR backup jobs set up on my RN314. They are all set up to send me the status, by email, on completion. All jobs are set up to copy files/snapshots (as the case may...
Yes. All the ReadyDR jobs are set up to send both error and status on completion.
Thanks.
Thanks.
Were you able to check if you are receiving failed ReadyDR jobs?

- The ReadyDR jobs are not failing. The job history shows that they are going through. Also, I can compare the number and date of snapshots between the source and destination ReadyNAS. They are all synchronized which wouldn’t be the case if the ReadyDR jobs had failed.
Thanks.Sorry what I mean was if you were receiving alerts if a ReadyDR Job fails. I was trying to check if a failed job status will provide an email alert.
Please let me know if you can simulate one so we can compare.

Dear Marc_V,
I was able to simulate a ReadyDR job failure. I first created a new share X at source, set up a ReadyDR job to run on taking a snapshot of X which will transmit the snapshot to a ReadyDR share X-DR at destination.
I first *successfully* ran the ReadyDR job and transmitted a snapshot from X to X-DR. This worked but did not send any email to me.The time now came to *fail* the ReadyDR job. I deleted the transmitted snapshot at the destination on X-DR. I then went back to source and took a snapshot on X. This is supposed to trigger the ReadyDR job and it did. But the job failed.
And, guess what, this failure generated an email that I received!
So it seems that a failure of a ReadyDR job is generating and email but a success isn't.
What's going on here?
Thanks.
