melissa writes "Hi,
Has anyone setup alert forwarding with any success in sql 2000? I have
configured a master and target server but can't seem to get beyond that.
And I am having great problems find any documentation on alerts
forwarding.

I want to setup alert forwarding to harness the sqlmail functioning on
the master server. Is this a possibility. When the alerts fires on a
target server, I want the master server to be notified and send out an
email. When you are setting up alert forwarding, do you set up the alert
locally? Or on the master server? I can't seem to find any answers to
this!
I am running sql 2000 and win 2000.

Thanks,
Melissa"

Are you getting any particular error messages? One thing to make sure of is on the target server, make sure you have "Forward events to a different server" enabled -- to do this, on the target server, go to the "Advanced" tab of SQL Server Agent Properties and then check the box for "Forward events to a different server". From there you can pick what kind of events you want to have forwarded.

I have this option set up. But I am unsure of where to setup the jobs. Because when I look at the master server. The jobs are divided into local and master jobs. The local jobs on the local servers do not show up. Is this correct? Or should I be setting them up under local jobs on the master server?
