Responding to Platform Alerting

Prometheus is configured to send alerts to teams mailing lists.

You can check and subscribe to these alerts in each corresponding mailing list page (Google Groups):

• Group for govpaas-alerting-dev@digital.cabinet-office.gov.uk
• Group for govpaas-alerting-ci@digital.cabinet-office.gov.uk
• Group for govpaas-alerting-staging@digital.cabinet-office.gov.uk
• Group for govpaas-alerting-prod@digital.cabinet-office.gov.uk

BOSHJobEphemeralDiskPredictWillFill Diego Cell Alert

This alert may not require any action as it evaluates changes over a 30 minute period and then extrapolates it over 4 hours.

Action is required if we receive a BOSHJobEphemeralDiskFull alert. You can resolve this alert by recreating the instance.

For diego cells, GrootFS is allowed to fill 88% of the disk while the rest is reserved for other jobs. Garbage collection occurs when a container is created so disk full alerts are likely to be triggered by other jobs on the cell.
