Changing alerting settings

Changing alerting settings

Certificates are normally renewed automatically 30 days before they expire. As a second line of defense, there is an alerting in Prometheus activated if the certificate is a few days before expiration. By default, the alert is triggered 15 days before expiration.

You can configure the days in the providerConfig of the extension. Setting it to 0 disables the alerting.

In this example, the days are changed to 3 days before expiration.
