Generate an email report of Exchange database backup times. Download the latest version of the script from the TechNet Script Gallery or the releases page.
Checks the backup timestamps for Exchange databases and alerts if a database hasn't been backed up recently.
No inputs required, however you should modify the Settings.xml file to suit your environment.
Sends an HTML email if databases are detected without a backup for more than the specified number of hours.
.\Get-DailyBackupAlerts.ps1
Tip: Run as a scheduled task to generate the alerts automatically
.\Get-DailyBackupAlerts.ps1 -AlwaysSend -Log
Sends the report even if no alerts are found, and writes a log file.
