# inhibits another alert for the same thing, which we want at most
# 1 alert per 24 hours.

#### Inhibit notes ####
## Example of expressions to detect if the target_down alert
# fired in the last 24 hours. Initially, I thought his could
# be an alert which inhibits up_resets, but eventually I figured
# that doesn't make much sense, and the idea of using an alert
# that is not an indication of something wrong, only inhibits another
# alert, I think works better to integrate directly into the
# alert it would inhibit, this may mean a recording rule. That avoids
# an alert we have to ignore or filter out.
#
# Alternate expression, to calculate if the alert would have fired is:
#  min_over_time(sum_over_time(up[30m])[1d:]) == 0
#  where 30m matches the for: time in target_down
#
# Note: for graphing, surround in the expression in sum_over_time()
# ALERTS{alertname="target_down",alertstate="firing"}[1d]
#### end Inhibit notes ####


# For targets where we alert only on long downtimes, we
# still want to know if it is going down many times for short times over
# a long period of time. But ignore reboots.
#
## Another way would be to detect an overall downtime:
# avg_over_time(node_systemd_unit_state{name="dynamicipupdate.service",state="active"}[1d]) < .95
