How to Monitor MSSQL Agent-Jobs

mssql-agent-job-monitoring.txt

# discover all existing agent-jobs
SELECT name, step_name, jobs.job_id FROM msdb.dbo.sysjobsteps job_steps INNER JOIN msdb.dbo.sysjobs jobs ON jobs.job_id = job_steps.job_id

# get status for each job
SELECT subsystem, database_name, command, last_run_outcome, last_run_duration, last_run_date, last_run_time FROM msdb.dbo.sysjobsteps WHERE step_name = '{#STEP_NAME}' AND job_id = '{#JOB_ID}'

# check the status and trigger if not ok
## json query: $..last_run_outcome.first()
## error if last_run_outcome=0
