Creating an alert rule

To create a new alert rule:

• Open Grafana using the https://grafana.sys.<cluster domain> link and log in with your username and password.
• Open the Alert rules tab.
• Create a new alert rule by clicking New alert rule.
• Under Enter alert rule name, give it a name.
• Under Define query and alert condition, specify the query that will be used to define the issue. Use PromQL for queries.
• Under Set evaluation behavior, specify how often the query will be checked and how long the issue will be monitored.
• Under Configure labels and notifications, specify the channels through which issue notifications will be sent.
• Under Configure notification message, specify the message template that will be used when sending a notification. For template syntax examples, see this Prometheus guide.
• Click Save rule and exit to save the alert rule.

The new alert will appear on the Alert rules page.
