Ability to alert on weekday and weekend schedule with variable frequency ( cron job)
Hi,
I am using Log Analytics to write some queries (KQL) and based on the outcome of the query send alerts.
I want different alerts based on weekdays , weekends and different frequency.
So for example I want to set up the following alerts on the same query
1) Weekdays (MON-FRI) 8 AM - 8 PM - frequency every 15 minutes
2) Weekdays (After hours) 8PM - 8 AM - frequency every 1 hour
3) Weekends ( SAT-SUN) - frequency every hour
Is it possible through Azure Alert rules . I don't see any setup for custom frequency .
Thanks

- Hi,
You will need to use multiple rules, with different rules. To get weekday and office hours into your query, see http://contoso.se/blog/?p=4585 for an example.
Also, if you have not already, look into Action Rules, which can be used to control alert rules.Anders Bengtsson Thanks for your reply. We have used exactly the same mechanism of handing it in query .
