      When a failed backup notification email is received how can I identify which host/pool this backup job ran on?

      Is there somewhere I can lookup the Job ID or Run ID?

          @McHenry Always had the same question, never asked....
          Looked up the job/VM in XO to get the info but it should be clearly specified here also, should be more than easy.

              I enabled the Shorter backup reports in a failing backup job, and got the same short report as You did.

                Yes, I am viewing the shorter email reports however these reports would be more useful if the origin of the report could be easily identified.

                    This is with the Shorter backup reports disabled:

                        OK, I see the difference.

                        When an individual VM fails to backup the report is as your shown above and displays the name of the VM however when the job fails as a whole the report inly includes the top section that has a Job ID & Run ID so no way I can see to identify where this job.

                        i.e.

                        3357a537-55c4-40de-944a-dfe47458b6fb-image.png

                        @olivierlambert
                        Could these reports include both the pool name and host name in addition to the Job ID and Run ID?

                          Yes, it should be possible, even if the name can be changed (it's not "stable" vs an UUID). But it makes sense, asking @pdonias about this.

                            Good point, the UUID of the host or pool would also work.

                                Whilst this request awaits implementation. If I check all hosts individually however I identify the host based upon the jobID or runID from the notification?

                                    Is this listed on GitHub so I can track any discussion/progress?

                                    I am keen to see this implemented as currently we receive backup reports of failed jobs and have no idea which host is came from.

                                      Still trying to identify the owner of a job so the I can determine which backup job failed. The email report does not identify the host/pool. Accordingly, I need to login to every individual XO/XOA and check the backup log manually to find the failed job.

                                      d817a0bb-cd6a-4cdb-9413-363106f4ca9f-image.png

                                          @McHenry hello, thanks for the report.
                                          Can you open a suggestion on Github so we can plan it or next roadmap?
                                          Have a good day.
