    without seeing what it says in history, hard to say. could be one step that fails, like a email notification step at the end of the job, or maybe one of the steps is set to report failure instead of success

  • email is not established , mail is not configured , how to resolve this .

  • Seems like your job is able to backup but one or many of its steps or Part is raising error message. To trouble shoot, pull out the script in QA and run it from Query window and you will see there the result that "Query Executed with Errors".

    Another method can be to diagnose your SQL Server Error logs.

  • after all i got a doubt at your backups! are they valid ?

    Some times backups may fail at completion time, then it will give a backup but that might not be valid.

    So please check the backup state by below query

    Restore headeronly from disk='bakcup file locaton.bak'

    Restore filelistonly from disk='bakcup file locaton.bak'

  • all backups are vaild , it is an production server

  • all backups are vaild , it is an production server

  • Can you post the history of the job, so that we can see what you are saying

    email is not established , mail is not configured , how to resolve this .

    Can you check

    1) your backup script if at all it has some script which is trying to send email notification(s)? If this is not the case please check the below.

    2) if in the SQL Server Agent Properties>Alert System>Enable Mail Profile option is checked.

    3) In the job Properties, if there is any value set for Alerts or notification
