We are excited to announce the preview release of alerting and monitoring for Azure backups, which is currently the top-voted idea on Azure backup UserVoice. In a continuation of the simplified experience using the new Recovery Services vault, customers can now monitor cloud backups for their on-premises servers and Azure IaaS virtual machines in a single dashboard. In addition, they can also configure email notifications for all backup alerts.

#Step 2: Select the subscription which you want to register for preview
