BACKUP ERRORS MISSING IN THE EVENT LOG

Hi,

One of our backup jobs failed this morning but nothing got written into
win nt application event log. This way our MOM 2005 couldn't generate
an alert on this event since mom inspetcs application event log for
that purpose (event id 17055). I see backup errors about 10 days ago in
the appl log. What could have caused that? Any help will be
appreciated.

Do you see anything in the SQL Server error log?
