Good day,

I have a Job that runs every half an hour, and has about 30 steps. If a step fails it moves on to the next step (the steps are not dependant on one another)... However I would like to receive notification if that occurs. I have SQL 2005, with database mail enabled and set up (works fine for other jobs)... The question is how do I get it to send me an email if a single step fails, however the job on a whole succeeds?

Do I need to set up a step between each job?

Step 1 An actual step, on failure: step 2 On success Step3
Step 2 A step that emails the failure of step 1, then goes to step 3
Step 3 An actual step

etc etc... Or is there a better way?
