A clarification question. Upon a failed job, I want to send an email to 2 different email addresses. So, I created 2 operators and checked them to receive emails in the Response of the alert properties.

However, in the Notifications in the Job properties, it only enables you to select one operator to send an email upon the completion of the job. So, I'm confused about how alerts and notifications work.

It seems that the alerts have all the information it needs to send out the emails, but then if you don't turn on the Notifications, the email is not sent. I tested this by disabling the email in the job under notifications, and left the alert configured to send emails to 2 operators. Upon running the job from this step, and getting a failure, there was no email sent. Am I missing something on how alerts work?
