Generally Available: Azure Monitor Prometheus community recommended alerts for Azure Arc-enabled Kubernetes

Azure Monitor now offers one-click enablement of Prometheus recommended alerts directly in the Azure Portal for Azure Arc-enabled Kubernetes clusters. These alerts, based on enhanced Prometheus community rules, provide comprehensive coverage across cluster, node, and pod levels. Previously, enabling these alerts required manual template downloads and CLI deployment.

To use these alerts, your cluster must have Azure Monitor managed service for Prometheus enabled. They serve as the replacement for the legacy Container insights recommended alerts (custom metrics) (preview).

By enabling these alerts, customers will:

• Receive timely notifications on critical cluster issues.
• Accelerate triage and troubleshooting with preconfigured signal coverage.
• Improve cluster reliability and performance with minimal configuration.
