Alert "Monitor Condition" never changes

We're starting our journey from SCOM to Azure Monitor and have run into an issue with Azure Alerts (sorry for posting this in Azure Log Analytics, but there is no Azure Monitor Tech Community).   I...

ScottAllison did you find an answer on how to change the monitor condition?

 

Thanks in advance,

I've reached out to the alerts PM (Yaniv.Lavi@microsoft.com), awaiting his update on this.

    Hi Noa. 

    I posted a similar question on Stackoverflow and with a little help I found the reason of my issue. I changed the aggregation count from "Count" to "Total" and that resolved the alert.

      Thanks andersbaumann !

      Great to see you were able to adjust the query and find a solution. Harel's answer is relevant only to metric alerts, and the problem with resolving log based alerts is still on going.

      The answer I got from Yaniv Lavi (Yaniv.Lavi@microsoft.com) is they're hoping to fix in in the next semester, but it's not sure yet.

        Noa Kuperberg Hi,

         

        What's the status of this? I am trying to configure alerts for failed automation runbooks and I am seeing the same behavior. The alert fires only once/resource, and remains "Fired". I tried both Total and Count aggregations with the same outcome. 

         

         

        Best regards,

        Alex
