Changes

  • Add an Alert Routing Server configuration reference (ars.* options), with a warning that the component is only available on AWS CloudFormation deployments, not Docker or Kubernetes.
  • Document ARS deployment in the AWS ECS guide: the templates involved (2-7-queue-sqs, 4-1-secrets, 4-2a-configuration, 5-4-ecs-services) and how Tenant Resource Monitoring's Alertmanager forwards alerts to ARS.
  • Mark the Alerting feature as available on Enterprise (AWS CloudFormation only) in addition to Cloud.
  • Document gateway outage alert timing: alerts stay open at most 24 hours, after which the customer is notified that the gateway reconnected or that monitoring has stopped.
