In the Operations pane, check the desired checkboxes in the tab for each type of task (Create
Virtual Copy, Backup, and/or Restore) for which you want emails:
•
Info - Recovery Manager sends informational emails for successful operations.
•
Error - Recovery Manager sends informational emails for operations that were not
completed successfully.
Both informational and error emails contain the result of the operation and the related CLI
output.

Click Finish.
Recovery Manager encrypts the password and saves the configuration as an XML file with
the filename servername_instancename_EmailConfig.xml. Each time a virtual copy
or backup is created or a restoration is performed on this instance, Recovery Manager checks
the XML file and, if email is configured for the task, sends an email with the task information
and/or error messages.
Deleting Email Configurations
To permanently stop all email notifications for an instance:
1.
Select the instance for which you do not want to receive any email notifications.
2.
Select Actions
→Delete Email Config.
Creating Virtual Copies
You can use Recovery Manager to manually create virtual copies at the instance and database
level. You can also schedule Recovery Manager to automatically make virtual copies of instances
and/or databases.
NOTE:
You can configure Recovery Manager to automatically send email notifications when
virtual copies are manually or automatically created. For more information, see
How Virtual Copy Creation Works
When Recovery Manager creates a virtual copy for an instance, it creates a virtual copy of all
databases under that instance, including the instance's system databases. Similarly, when Recovery
Manager creates a virtual copy for a database, it creates a virtual copy of the entire volume where
the database and log files reside.
If you have Remote Copy set up, you can also create a virtual copy to be saved on the Remote
Copy backup server; this type of copy is called a remote virtual copy.
NOTE:
For more information about setting up instances, databases, and volumes to avoid data
loss, see
“Configuring the SQL Database” (page 19)
Manually Creating a Virtual Copy
To create a virtual copy:
1.

virtual copy, and select Create Virtual Copy.
