I set up an Alert on an Azure storage account for Average storage consumption. In order to test it, I set the threshold consumption to 2TiB (my storage has 4 TiB data). As expected, the alert was fired meaning the setup was correct. Note: While setting up the alert I had selected the option Automatically resolve alerts
.

Issue:-
Now I have increased this threshold to a much higher value it should actually be. However, the "state" of the alert already fired while testing is still present. When I try to manually change it (set it to Closed
or Acknowledged
), it fails. I've tried deleting the Alert altogether and re-creating it but even that did not help either.
The issue resolved itself over time. Seems it was one of those cases where Azure takes way too much time to update its state. I checked after about 24 hrs.
