Backup Alert Triage Workflow for MSPs

How MSPs triage backup job failures, missed backups, and storage capacity alerts.

Classify alert

Missed backup, job failure, storage capacity, integrity warnings, replication failure.

Prioritize

Systems with tight RPO/RTO first; recurring failures escalated as problems, not tickets.

Remediate

Fix root cause, rerun job, verify completion, update exception log, and adjust monitoring thresholds where appropriate.
