||||
## Troubleshooting
|
||||
|
||||
vmalert executes configured rules within certain intervals. It is expected that at the moment when rule is executed,
|
||||
the data is already present in configured `-datasource.url`:
|
||||
|
||||
<img alt="vmalert expected evaluation" src="vmalert_ts_normal.gif">
|
||||
|
||||
Usually, troubles start to appear when data in `-datasource.url` is delayed or absent. In such cases, evaluations
|
||||
may get empty response from datasource and produce empty recording rules or reset alerts state:
|
||||
|
||||
<img alt="vmalert evaluation when data is delayed" src="vmalert_ts_data_delay.gif">
|
||||
|
||||
Try the following recommendations in such cases:
|
||||
|
||||
* Always configure group's `evaluationInterval` to be bigger or equal to `scrape_interval` at which metrics
|
||||
are delivered to the datasource;
|
||||
* If you know in advance, that data in datasource is delayed - try changing vmalert's `-datasource.lookback`
|
||||
command-line flag to add a time shift for evaluations;
|
||||
* If time intervals between datapoints in datasource are irregular - try changing vmalert's `-datasource.queryStep`
|
||||
command-line flag to specify how far search query can lookback for the recent datapoint. By default, this value
|
||||
is equal to group's `evaluationInterval`.
|
||||
|
||||
Sometimes, it is not clear why some specific alert fired or didn't fire. It is very important to remember, that
|
||||
alerts with `for: 0` fire immediately when their expression becomes true. And alerts with `for > 0` will fire only
|
||||
after multiple consecutive evaluations, and at each evaluation their expression must be true. If at least one evaluation
|
||||
becomes false, then alert's state resets to the initial state.
|
||||
|
||||
If `-remoteWrite.url` command-line flag is configured, vmalert will persist alert's state in form of time series
|
||||
`ALERTS` and `ALERTS_FOR_STATE` to the specified destination. Such time series can be then queried via
|
||||
[vmui](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/Single-server-VictoriaMetrics.html#vmui) or Grafana to track how alerts state
|
||||
changed in time.
|
||||
|
||||
vmalert also stores last N state updates for each rule. To check updates, click on `Details` link next to rule's name
|
||||
on `/vmalert/groups` page and check the `Last updates` section:
|
||||
|
||||
<img alt="vmalert state" src="vmalert_state.png">
|
||||
|
||||
Rows in the section represent ordered rule evaluations and their results. The column `curl` contains an example of
|
||||
HTTP request sent by vmalert to the `-datasource.url` during evaluation. If specific state shows that there were
|
||||
no samples returned and curl command returns data - then it is very likely there was no data in datasource on the
|
||||
moment when rule was evaluated.
|
||||
|
||||
vmalert also alows configuring more detailed logging for specific rule. Just set `debug: true` in rule's configuration
|
||||
and vmalert will start printing additional log messages:
|
||||

## Troubleshooting
|
||||
|
||||
vmalert executes configured rules within certain intervals. It is expected that at the moment when rule is executed,
|
||||
the data is already present in configured `-datasource.url`:
|
||||
|
||||
<img alt="vmalert expected evaluation" src="vmalert_ts_normal.gif">
|
||||
|
||||
Usually, troubles start to appear when data in `-datasource.url` is delayed or absent. In such cases, evaluations
|
||||
may get empty response from datasource and produce empty recording rules or reset alerts state:
|
||||
|
||||
<img alt="vmalert evaluation when data is delayed" src="vmalert_ts_data_delay.gif">
|
||||
|
||||
Try the following recommendations in such cases:
|
||||
|
||||
* Always configure group's `evaluationInterval` to be bigger or equal to `scrape_interval` at which metrics
|
||||
are delivered to the datasource;
|
||||
* If you know in advance, that data in datasource is delayed - try changing vmalert's `-datasource.lookback`
|
||||
command-line flag to add a time shift for evaluations;
|
||||
* If time intervals between datapoints in datasource are irregular - try changing vmalert's `-datasource.queryStep`
|
||||
command-line flag to specify how far search query can lookback for the recent datapoint. By default, this value
|
||||
is equal to group's `evaluationInterval`.
|
||||
|
||||
Sometimes, it is not clear why some specific alert fired or didn't fire. It is very important to remember, that
|
||||
alerts with `for: 0` fire immediately when their expression becomes true. And alerts with `for > 0` will fire only
|
||||
after multiple consecutive evaluations, and at each evaluation their expression must be true. If at least one evaluation
|
||||
becomes false, then alert's state resets to the initial state.
|
||||
|
||||
If `-remoteWrite.url` command-line flag is configured, vmalert will persist alert's state in form of time series
|
||||
`ALERTS` and `ALERTS_FOR_STATE` to the specified destination. Such time series can be then queried via
|
||||
[vmui](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/Single-server-VictoriaMetrics.html#vmui) or Grafana to track how alerts state
|
||||
changed in time.
|
||||
|
||||
vmalert also stores last N state updates for each rule. To check updates, click on `Details` link next to rule's name
|
||||
on `/vmalert/groups` page and check the `Last updates` section:
|
||||
|
||||
<img alt="vmalert state" src="vmalert_state.png">
|
||||
|
||||
Rows in the section represent ordered rule evaluations and their results. The column `curl` contains an example of
|
||||
HTTP request sent by vmalert to the `-datasource.url` during evaluation. If specific state shows that there were
|
||||
no samples returned and curl command returns data - then it is very likely there was no data in datasource on the
|
||||
moment when rule was evaluated.
|
||||
|
||||
vmalert also alows configuring more detailed logging for specific rule. Just set `debug: true` in rule's configuration
|
||||
and vmalert will start printing additional log messages:
|
||||
