Yes, the inhibit rule takes precedence, so no notifications should be sent
out as long as the inhibit condition is true.
E.g. if you have:
* an alert {alertname="memoryHigh", namespace="monitoring",
prometheus="myprometheus"}
* an alert {alertname="Inhibit", prometheus="myprometheus"}
...then you will not get a notification for that first alert. Depending on
your other routes, you may still get a notification for the second one
though (if it's not routed to a no-op receiver).
