Question : Does SQL Server allow a sql server agent job to write the job status to the Windows Application log?
Answer: Writing a message to the Windows Application log is configured via the Notifications tab on the SQL Server Agent job window.
There are 3 options:
When the Job fails
When the job succeeds
When the job completes
I prefer to manage by exception – so usually only write to the application log if the job fails. There are circumstances where it is necessary to report a job success – in that case , use the When the job succeeds option.
Once the status is written to the Windows Application Log , you can use various methods to retrieve the error message.
