Hi, 

I tried transferring the files from old instance to new instance at same 
location. But then after a few minutes(about 10 minutes), alert-manager 
files that were transferred to the path got re-setted back to how the files 
were - before transfer. Seems the alert-manager service holds some cache 
data which gets filled back in the storage place. Is there any solution to 
this problem? 

How can we efficiently retain the silences when Alert-Manager gets 
transferred from one instance to another?

Pls do help.
Thanks.
