Silence Rules

AOM supports alarm silence. You can shield alarm notifications in a specified period. A silence rule takes effect immediately after it is created.

Creation Method

  1. Log in to the AOM console. In the navigation pane, choose Alarm Center > Alarm Noise Reduction and click the Silence Rules tab. On the displayed page, click Create.
  2. Set information such as Rule Name and Match Condition.

    Figure 1 Creating a silence rule

    Any alarm notifications that meet the match condition will be shielded. You can set a match condition in one of the following formats:

    • "key1:value1,key2:value2". Match the value corresponding to the key to determine a suppressed object.
    • "key1,key2". Match the key to determine the suppressed object. All values under the key are covered.
    • "key1,key2,key3:value3". Determine the suppressed object by using the preceding two methods.

      "key:value" pairs must be separated by commas (,). The relationship between "key:value" pairs is "AND". That is, all conditions specified by setting "key:value" pairs must be met.

    The "key:value" pairs in the match condition are obtained from metadata in the alarm message body. Example:

    { 
    "starts_at" : 1579420868000, 
    "ends_at" : 1579420868000, 
    "timeout" : 60000, 
    "resource_group_id" : "5680587ab6*******755c543c1f", 
    "metadata" : { 
      "event_name" : "test", 
      "event_severity" : "Major", 
      "event_type" : "alarm", 
      "resource_provider" : "ecs", 
      "resource_type" : "vm", 
      "resource_id" : "ecs123" 
 }, 
"annotations" : { 
       "alarm_probableCause_en_us": " Possible causes",
       "alarm_fix_suggestion_en_us": "Handling suggestion"
  }
}

  3. Click OK.
