Create and manage escalation policies-Managed Service for Prometheus(Prometheus)-阿里云帮助中心

An escalation policy automatically notifies designated contacts when alerts remain unresolved. When added to a notification policy, it ensures critical issues receive timely attention.

Prerequisites

Create a contact. For more information, see Create a contact.

Create an escalation policy

Log on to the Managed Service for Prometheus console.
In the left-side navigation pane, choose Alert Management > Escalation Policies.
On the Escalation Policies page, click Create Escalation Policy in the upper-right corner.
In the escalation rule section, enter a name for the policy in the text box at the top.
In the escalation rule section, define the trigger conditions. An escalation is triggered when an alert is not claimed or resolved within a specified period. For example, you can set a rule to escalate an alert that remains unclaimed for 10 minutes.
In the escalation rule section, click Add notification target, and then select the contacts and notification methods.
