Thanks for the reply.

I looked a bit at the links, but it's a lot of things that I don't really
know how they work. When I set up Grafana to monitor our other servers
there were some default monitoring that included alerts and I was hoping
there was something similar here.

This isn't critical at the moment so I'll leave it for now. At some point
we probably will need alerts so I may get back to you then.
