You can organize your rules. Rules are created within rule groups, and rule groups are organized into namespaces. The rules within a rule group are run sequentially at a regular interval. The default interval is one minute. You can rename Grafana Mimir or Loki namespaces and rule groups, and edit rule group evaluation intervals.
To edit a rule group or namespace
-
From your Grafana console, in the Grafana menu, choose the Alerting (bell) icon to open the Alerting page.
-
Navigate to a rule within the rule group or namespace you want to edit.
-
Choose the Edit (pen) icon.
-
Make changes to the rule group or namespace.
Note
For namespaces, you can only edit the name. For rule groups, you change the name, or the evaluation interval for rules in the group. For example, you can choose
1m
to have the rules be evaluated once per minute, or30s
to evaluate once every 30 seconds. -
Choose Save changes.
