Acronis Cyber Protect

Send Acronis Cyber Protect backup reports to BackupSentinel, step by step.

Last updated

Acronis reports per protection plan. Where the notification is set differs between Cyber Protect Cloud and the on-premises editions, so the steps name what to look for rather than one menu.

  1. Open the plan's notification settings

    Open the protection plan you want to monitor and find its email notification settings. In some editions these are set once for the whole account or organisation rather than per plan.

  2. Add the address and pick the events

    Add the address as an email recipient and enable notifications for successful, warning and failed backups. A plan that only reports failures looks Missing on every good day.

How reports find their backup
The built-in rule reads the result of the report but not a job name. With one backup under the client, every report sent to the client address is credited to it. With several, give each job its own address (shown in the job drawer) wherever the product lets you set a recipient per job. Reports that cannot be told apart wait in the Inbox for you to assign.
Check it works
Run the job once, or wait for the next scheduled run. Within a minute the report appears under the backup, or in the Inbox when it could not be matched. A product's own "send test email" is not a backup result: expect it in the Inbox, where you can ignore it.
