Setup Alerts in Grafana

Navigate to Alerting> Contact points. Press the “Add contact point” button.

After selecting integration “Email” and specifying addresses, you can press the “Test” button to send a test notification to the contact point.

Note: The alerts will be set with default thresholds. For example, Elastio will trigger an alert if free disk space is less than 10 GB by default. You can modify the thresholds for alerts based on your needs.

Modify Alert Thresholds

To modify the default thresholds for these alerts, follow these steps:

Navigate to Alerting → Alert rules, and duplicate an alert from Elastio Provisioned Rules 

  • Set the thresholds that suit your needs.
  • Suppress the old alert created by default.

View Alert Status

Alert statuses can be seen on the Elastio Cluster Metrics dashboard in Grafana.
