UnusualDiskWriteLatency
Level: Warning
Purpose: This alert tells us that the disk write latency is growing.
Scenario: Disk write operations taking >100ms for 5m.
Resolution: You could check if there is a process doing large writes and check the status of it. Check the health of the disk, if it's damaged then it may need replacement. Also check storage, the disk may be filling up.
Manual Action Steps: You can check the current i/o processlist using iostat. For checking disk health there is a guide here https://www.addictivetips.com/ubuntu-linux-tips/check-hard-drive-health-on-linux/. Use df or du to check disk space and if its filling up then look at removing unneeded files or expanding the disk.
Auto Clear: This will clear once the threshold is no longer breached
