How to Review Terraform Changes That Disable Production Log Alerts

11/10/2026

A Terraform change may disable an alert because of a threshold or resource rename, leaving logs collected but no one notified when a critical pattern appears.

What to check

Inspect alert resource changes, source logs, filters, thresholds, notification targets, and ownership. Confirm whether a replacement alert is active and has been tested.

Recommended next step

Deploy replacement coverage before removing existing alerts, then send a controlled test notification to the responsible team. Track alert changes in the service runbook.
