Adding an Alarm-wide Suppression
Temporarily stop notifications from an alarm by applying a suppression. For example, use a suppression to suspend alarm notifications during system maintenance. Each suppression applies to a single alarm. In the Console, you can apply one definition of a suppression to many alarms. The result is an individual suppression for each alarm.
Only one alarm-wide suppression can be configured per alarm. Any existing alarm-wide suppression for an alarm is overwritten when you apply a new suppression.
To add a dimension-specific suppression, see Adding a Dimension-Specific Alarm Suppression.
Expired suppressions continue to be listed on pages in the Console. A suppression expires when the end time passes.
For alarm troubleshooting, see Troubleshooting Alarms.
Current suppression details are listed on the Alarm Definitions page and on each related alarm details page. Use the oci monitoring alarm update command and required parameters to add an alarm-wide suppression:
oci monitoring alarm update --suppression <file_or_text> --alarm-id <alarm_OCID>
For a complete list of parameters and values for CLI commands, see the Command Line Reference for Monitoring.
Run the UpdateAlarm operation to add an alarm-wide suppression.
When defining details for UpdateAlarmDetails, set
suppress
to the configuration details you want. For an example ofsuppress
configuration details, see Suppression.
