Expression that doesn't work

Prometheus server
1

Hi community,

I have a prometheus server that is scrapping all the instances from my cloud and also all the pods from the k8s cluster but I’need to exclude kubernetes-pods job from the scrapping but I cannot rid of them :)) , I’ m using the below expression and doesn’t work:

  - alert: JobScrapeFailed
    expr: max by (job, service, instance) (up{job!="kubernetes-pods"}) == 0

Do you know what is wrong of these expression?

For briefing why I want to exclude the kubernetes-pods job :

  • i’ve created 2 alerts , one for instances from my cloud(os.rules.j2) and one for the k8s cluster pods ( kubernetes.rules.j2), and whenever I’m receiving alerts from the os.rules.j2 I also receive alert from kubernetes-pods …

Thank you for answering :slight_smile:
