How to set up a SQL Server 2008 Trigger that sends an Email Alert when a Job is Created/Deleted
I have created a trigger, with the help of many hours of research. The trigger currently emails out to a recipient when a SQL job has been enabled/disabled. The trigger has been tested and works without fail.
I would like to extend the trigger out to capture the creation and deletion of jobs as well, but I am not sure how.
Here is the code that I have:
USE [msdb]
GO
SET ANSI_NULLS ON
GO
SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
GO
ALTER TRIGGER [dbo].[jobChecker]
ON sysjobs
FOR UPDATE AS
SET NOCOUNT ON
-- # DECLARE VARIABLES # --
DECLARE @username VARCHAR(50),
@hostName VARCHAR(50),
@jobName VARCHAR(100),
@newEnabled INT,
@oldEnabled INT,
@jobCreated INT,
@bodyText VARCHAR(200),
@subjectText VARCHAR(200),
@servername VARCHAR(50),
@profileName VARCHAR(50) = 'profile_name',
@recipients VARCHAR(500) = 'example@domain.com'
-- # SET VARIABLES # --
SELECT @username = SYSTEM_USER
SELECT @hostName = HOST_NAME()
SELECT @servername = @@servername
SELECT @newEnabled = ENABLED FROM Inserted
SELECT @oldEnabled = ENABLED FROM Deleted
SELECT @jobName = Name FROM Inserted
-- # CHECK FOR ENABLED/DISABLED # --
IF @newEnabled <> @oldEnabled
BEGIN
IF @newEnabled = 1
BEGIN
SET @bodyText = 'The user (' + @username + ') enabled the job from ' + @hostName + ' on ' + CONVERT(VARCHAR(20),GETDATE(),100) + '.'
SET @subjectText = @servername + ' : [' + @jobName + '] has been ENABLED'
END
IF @newEnabled = 0
BEGIN
SET @bodyText = 'The user (' + @username + ') disabled the job from ' + @hostName + ' on ' + CONVERT(VARCHAR(20),GETDATE(),100) + '.'
SET @subjectText = @servername+' : [' + @jobName + '] has been DISABLED'
END
SET @subjectText = 'SQL Job on ' + @subjectText
-- # SEND EMAIL # --
EXEC msdb.dbo.sp_send_dbmail
@profile_name = @profileName,
@recipients = @recipients,
@body = @bodyText,
@subject = @subjectText
END
