SQL Agent Job: Update the notification operator

I found many SQL Agent job were enabled but no any  notifications setup in case of failure.

I ran the following

use msdb
GO
select * from dbo.sysjobs

where notify_level_email = 0

and enabled = 1

--- gives the list of jobs enabled but no notification set up.

SELECT [ID], [Name], [Enabled]

FROM MSDB.dbo.sysoperators

WHERE [Enabled] = 1

ORDER BY [Name];
Go

-- Gives the list of operators. Pick the Id of the one you want to notify to use in the below script








UPDATE S

SET S.[notify_level_email] = 2,

S.[notify_email_operator_id] = 2   ---my operator

FROM MSDB.dbo.sysjobs S

WHERE S.[Notify_Level_Email] = 0

AND S.[Enabled] = 1;
