Hi Folks,

How do I repeat my alerting every 5 mins to to get mails/slack/teams? For example if my DB service is down.  
Can somebody help on this?

Hi Naresh,

It’s used alertmanager for sending alerts.  
Could you add repeat\_interval parameter into alertmanager configuration file and restart this service?

Hi @Vadim_Yalovets How can this work? The heading line is saying: /etc/alertmanager.yml is managed by pmm-managed. If you change this file and restart docker, this file will be overwritten.

Hi @Luke03011

Yes your right, but for the temporary fix this is the only solution, so it will work until the docker restart or alertmanager restart, one you restart then again we need to follow the same steps.
