cdist-type__prometheus_alertmanager - install Alertmanager

Install and configure Prometheus Alertmanager (https://prometheus.io/docs/alerting/alertmanager/).

Note that due to significant differences between Prometheus 1.x and 2.x, only 2.x is supported. It is your responsibility to make sure that your package manager installs 2.x. (On Devuan Ascii, the parameter --install-from-backports helps.)

Alertmanager configuration file. It will be saved as /etc/alertmanager/alertmanager.yml on the target.

Where to put data. Default: /data/alertmanager. (Directory will be created if needed.)
How long to retain data. Default: 90 days.

Valid on Devuan only. Will enable the backports apt source and install the package from there. Useful for getting a newer version.
