DatadogMonitor CRD

To deploy a Datadog monitor, you can use the Datadog Operator and DatadogMonitor custom resource definition (CRD).

Prerequisites

Setup

  1. Create a file with the spec of your DatadogMonitor deployment configuration.

    Example:

    The following example spec creates a metric monitor that alerts on the query avg(last_10m):avg:system.disk.in_use{*} by {host} > 0.5.

    datadog-metric-monitor.yaml

       apiVersion: datadoghq.com/v1alpha1
   kind: DatadogMonitor
   metadata:
     name: datadog-monitor-test
     namespace: datadog
   spec:
     query: "avg(last_10m):avg:system.disk.in_use{*} by {host} > 0.5"
     type: "metric alert"
     name: "Test monitor made from DatadogMonitor"
     message: "1-2-3 testing"
     tags:
       - "test:datadog"
     priority: 5
     options:
       evaluationDelay: 300
       includeTags: true
       locked: false
       newGroupDelay: 300
       notifyNoData: true
       noDataTimeframe: 30
       renotifyInterval: 1440
       thresholds:
         critical: "0.5"
         warning: "0.28"

    For all available configuration options, see the Create a new monitor API reference.

  2. Deploy your DatadogMonitor:

    kubectl apply -f /path/to/your/datadog-metric-monitor.yaml
