I wanted to share this small code which I have originally found on internet, modified a bit to work for us.

I am also including the function Get-FailedScheduledTasks inside latest vsadmin module which is getting very good response from the community

as it includes all day-to-day scripts used by system administrators in the form of commands.

Download it from Gitlab or PowerShell Gallery:

https://github.com/VikasSukhija/Downloads

getfailedscheduledtasks.ps1

https://www.powershellgallery.com/packages/getfailedscheduledtasks

Install-Script -Name getfailedscheduledtasks

Now just update the variables and below lines:

$getFailedScheduledTasks = Get-FailedScheduledTasks -includepaths “Scheduled”,”DevSolutions”

Update the TaskPath Names to input parameter include paths.

Now just schedule the solution from task scheduler, when it runs, it will check which task has failed and will send email alert on designated email id.

You can either use this script or vsadmin module to achieve the monitoring.

Thanks for reading …
