Issue/Introduction
Alarm with the below description "The disk usage of Metrics component metrics-postgresql-ha-postgresql/data-metrics-postgresql-ha-postgresql-0 is currently {}, which is above the threshold value."
Purpose: vDefend SSP metrics PostgreSQL disk usage is high or very high which can result in metrics PostgreSQL pod crashing.
Impact:
The metrics PostgreSQL pods will go in a crash loop if its out of disk space.
The time-series and point-in-time metrics persistence to the database will be stopped and the metrics time-series and point-in-time API responses may have missing or older data points respectively.
Environment
vDefend SSP >= 5.0
Cause
The scale of incoming metrics is high and the disk space needed to maintain these metrics is not sufficient.
