Configure inhibit/silence rule for instance_size_dependent label before enabling azure_postgres_connections_high alert #148

Description

@ian-flores

Context

The azure_postgres_connections_high alert rule in python-pulumi/src/ptd/grafana_alerts/azure_postgres.yaml is currently paused (isPaused: true). It must remain paused until two conditions are met:

  1. An inhibit/silence rule for the instance_size_dependent: "true" label is configured in Alertmanager/Grafana OnCall, so small-SKU Postgres instances don't produce false positives.
  2. This tracking issue URL is recorded in the YAML comment.

What needs to be done

  • Configure an inhibit/silence rule that suppresses alerts with instance_size_dependent="true" for known small-SKU Postgres instances.
  • Once the inhibit rule is in place, update the isPaused: true comment in azure_postgres.yaml with this issue URL and unpause the alert.

A test in python-pulumi/tests/test_azure_alert_files.py guards against accidental unpausing.
