I have one alert "sc_pcd_g2version" listed in AlertManager. It returns value 25.
I am looking for a way to pull this value "25" and print it into the annotation description of another alert "sc_pcd_encryption_server" in Alert manager.
See in the alert sc_pcd_encryption_server you can see in Bold letter that i am looking for to be included. To use Current alert value we use $labels.value
likewise how to pull value of another alert and print it in annotation description?
name: sc_pcd_g2version
expr: sc_pcd_g2version > 0
for: 1m
labels:
job: node
severity: warning
annotations:
message: Possibility of pcd g2version failure {{ $labels.instance }}.
summary: pcd g2version Check failure
name: sc_pcd_encryption_server
expr: sc_pcd_encryption_server > 0
for: 1m
labels:
job: node
severity: warning
annotations:
message: Possibility of **sc_pcd_g2version "25"** in encryption server failure {{ $labels.instance }}.
summary: pcd encryption server Check failure
Generally, this is not possible.
But in your exact case you could utilize a little trick: use sc_pcd_g2version > 0 and on(instance) sc_pcd_encryption_server > 0
instead of expression in your second alert.
That way when using {{ $value }}
, you get value of sc_pcd_g2version
and not sc_pcd_encryption_server
.
Something like this:
name: sc_pcd_encryption_server
expr: sc_pcd_g2version > 0 and on(instance) sc_pcd_encryption_server > 0
for: 1m
labels:
job: node
severity: warning
annotations:
message: Possibility of {{ $value }} in encryption server failure {{ $labels.instance }}.
summary: pcd encryption server Check failure
This is possible because you don't use labels of sc_pcd_encryption_server
, other than instance
, and they will be same for both metrics I believe.
Be sure to check that instance
is enough to match to metrics. If not, add needed labels to on
clause.
