Windows Server Backup 'Warning' Email Notifications

$

H Everyone,

I have configured 'Failure' Email Notifications for Windows Server Backup on our 2012 R2 Server but I'm having issues trying to configure different notifications for 'Success' and 'Warning' status. An example:

- Windows Server Backup ends with a warning status "Completed with warnings". When I check Event Viewer to try to determine what Event ID I can have as a trigger I can't seem to find any specifically related to the backup's 'Warning' status.

Looking at the 'Windows Logs\Application' area there are 'Information' events at the time of the backup completing but those IDs also show up for 'Failure' backups as well (and some of them are present for 'Success' backups even).

The 'Failure' notifications use Events logged in 'Applications and Services Logs\Microsoft\Windows\Backup\Operational' log but looking at the Event IDs for Successful and Warning backups, they are the same.

Does anyone know of Event IDs, maybe logged somewhere else deep in the Event Viewer, that I can use to differentiate between these two backup completion status'?

This server in particular is doing a full backup of itself (System Reserved, C:, a Hyper-V Server and it's Host Component, Bare metal recovery, System state) to a dedicated external HDD...

...BUT I'm also trying to setup these notifications on systems that are only doing 'Bare metal' backups (includes: System, C:, Bare metal recovery, System state) to NAS so I'd need Event IDs for those 'Success' and 'Warning' backups as well (if they are different).

If more information is required I can provide as necessary. Any help on this would be appreciated. Thanks.
