I presume that you are using a shell script to run this back up.
What you could do is to do a test condition on the last command to see if was a success. zero being a success and anything else a fail.
For example
tar blah blah blah
if
[[ $? != 0 ]]
then
printf "There is a problem with the back up\n"
else
printf "The Backup Was Ok\n"
fi
I guess you could replace the printf with the command 'wall'
man wall for more details.
Hope this is of some help.
