AlertmanagerFailedToSendAlerts¶

Meaning¶

At least one instance is unable to routed alert to the corresponding integration.

Impact¶

No impact since another instance should be able to send the notification, unless AlertmanagerClusterFailedToSendAlerts is also triggerd for the same integration.

Diagnosis¶

Verify the amount of failed notification per alert-manager-[instance] for a specific integration.

You can look metrics exposed in prometheus console using promQL. For exemple the following query will display the number of failed notifications per instance for pager duty integration. We have 3 instances involved in the example bellow.

rate(alertmanager_notifications_total{integration="pagerduty"}[5m])

Mitigation¶

Depending on the integration, you can have a look to alert-manager logs and act (network, authorization token, firewall...)

kubectl -n monitoring logs -l 'alertmanager=main' -c alertmanager
