Repeat interval and absent hours on instance.

[Sebastian Glock]

Hi, I have problem with repeat_interval. I want to specify in routes diffrent repeating.

alertmanager.yml

```

global:

route:

  receiver: alert-emailer-default-30m

  group_by: ['alertname', 'priority', 'instance']

  group_wait: 1m

  group_interval: 1m

  repeat_interval: 30s

  routes:

  - receiver: alert-emailer-default-30m

    group_by: ['alertname', 'priority', 'instance']

    group_wait: 1m

    group_interval: 1m

    repeat_interval: 5m

    match:

      severity: "[Disaster] {{ $labels.instance }}"

  - receiver: alert-emailer-default-1h

    group_by: ['alertname', 'priority', 'instance']

    group_wait: 1m

    group_interval: 1m

    repeat_interval: 1m

    match:

      severity: "[High] {{ $labels.instance }}"

  - receiver: alert-emailer-default-3h

    group_by: ['alertname', 'priority', 'instance']

    group_wait: 1m

    group_interval: 1m

    repeat_interval: 3m

   

    match:

      severity: "[Average] {{ $labels.instance }}"

```

alert.rules.yml:

```

groups:

- name: alert.rules

  rules:

#Windows

#CPU

  - alert: CPU load is more than 70%!

    expr: 100 - (1 -avg(irate(windows_cpu_time_total{mode="user"}[10m])) by (instance)) * 100 >= 40

    for: 30s

    labels:

      severity: "[Average] {{ $labels.instance }}"

    annotations:

      summary: "CPU load is more than 70%!"

      description: "{{ humanize $value }}%"

  - alert: CPU load is more than 80%!

    expr: 100 - (1 -avg(irate(windows_cpu_time_total{mode="user"}[10m])) by (instance)) * 100 >= 40

# AND ON() absent(hour() >= 0 < 18{instance="10.16.155.150"})

    for: 10s

    labels:

      severity: "[High] {{ $labels.instance }}"

    annotations:

      summary: "CPU load is more than 80%!"

      description: "{{ humanize $value }}%"

  - alert: CPU load is more than 90%!

    expr: 100 - (1 -avg(irate(windows_cpu_time_total{mode="user"}[10m])) by (instance)) * 100 >= 40

    for: 50s

    labels:

      severity: "[Disaster] {{ $labels.instance }}"

    annotations:

      summary: "CPU load is more than 90%!"

      description: "{{ humanize $value }}%"

```

but still main route holding repeat_interval. I'm getting reminder every 30 seconds, which is it implemented in main route. How to solve it so that e-mails arrive at different intervals defined in routes?

Second question is about absent hours:

```

100 - (1 -avg(irate(windows_cpu_time_total{mode="user"}[10m])) by (instance)) * 100 AND ON() absent(hour() >0 <12) AND ON() absent(nonexistent{instance="10.16.22.22"})

```

How to specify absent hours for given instances between 20 pm and 6 am?

Thanks for all your help!

Ok I have done 1st problem:

```

severity: "[Average] {{ $labels.instance }}" 

``` 

There can't be $labels.instance - without it works great.
