How to define SLO for Errors( one of the Golden Signal)

[heramb_sawant]

Hi Team,
I have plan to create SLOs for all 4 Golden signals. For the 'Errors" , how I should define warning and Failure criteria in Success criteria of SLO definition .Please help me on this.

Example - Suppose I want slo to measure error %. warning if server Error % goes above 5% and Failure if server Error % goes above 10%.

Regards,
Heramb

@heramb_sawant, you can relay on the template for that. Using the Service-level availability, that calculates the amount or request with erros by total requests.

For the criteria, you can set like this

Just make sure to properly choose the service entity you need to measure in the “Define Filter” field.

Regards.
