Metrics goes to 0 once i receive alert

So i've set alert for memory usage on workload and if i receive alert and go to see the problem and then in data explorer it goes to directly 0 from whatever number was there

Hello @vermatus 

In a quick nutshell:

1. For the alerting profile > ensure it's mapped to the intended management zone where all K8s entities are listed and shown properly as per K8s contents.
2. For the MZ > ensure the proper rules are configured to contain all workloads, namespaces,... etc.
3. The third point which is the anomaly detection on the workload.
4. Check the time frame settings on the configured tile or data explorer.

for the custom alerting settings 

Check if the workloads are properly presented through DT UI or Not

Metrics

Data Explorer

Simply:

• Metric is a numeric or statistical representation of what's actually present in the monitoring tenant.
• So if the entities are presented and monitored properly, statistical info should be present, and alerting should work as expected.
