How to use custom alerting feature for Individual host

[pshinde]

Hi Team , I see custom alerting option in Setting ->Anomaly detection . As per my understanding any custom alerting which we will create will get applied to all the services or processes or host as per attribute selection in condition . please correct me if I am wrong . Is their any way it can setup specific to servers /host & Specific drives . Also I selected one host and went to setting button but I do not see custom alert option their

For Disk utilization alert is their any way to define specific mount points or drive in custom alerting.

Hi,

Within the custom alerting config screen you can specifically select a single host or a process group or a single process to alert on.

What is not possible within custom alerting so far is to select a specific dimension of the metric, such as disk name or similar to further filter the alerting.

On the other hand the out of the box disk anomaly detection already allows you to define disk name filters on global settings level as well as to define host tag rules to filter by tagged group of hosts.

The measurement for infrastructure metrics such as disk or CPU is done every 10 seconds but the finest server side granularity is one minute.
