- **Evaluation group**: every alert rule is assigned to an evaluation group. You can assign the alert rule to an existing evaluation group or create a new one.
- **Evaluation interval**: determines how frequently the alert rule is checked. For instance, the evaluation may occur every 10s, 30s, 1m, 10m, etc.
- **Pending period**: how long the condition must be met to trigger the alert rule.
- **Keep firing for**: defines how long an alert should remain in the Firing state after the alert condition stops being true. During this time, the alert enters a _Recovering_ state, suppressing additional notifications but keeping the alert active. It helps prevent alert flapping, where alerts rapidly switch between firing and resolved due to noisy or unstable metrics.
To set up the evaluation:
1. In the **Evaluation group and interval**, repeat the above step to create a new evaluation group. Name it _1m-evaluation_.
1. In the **Evaluation group and interval**, enter a name. For example: `1m-evaluation`.
1. Choose an **Evaluation interval** (how often the alert are evaluated).
For example, every `1m` (1 minute).
1. Set the **pending period** to, `0s` (zero seconds), so the alert rule fires the moment the condition is met.
1. Set **Keep firing for** to, `0s`, so the alert stops firing immediately after the condition is no longer true. Use this when you want alerts to be resolved as soon as the system is healthy again.
