### Alert Suppression Using VM/CT Tags
Control alert behavior per VM/container using Proxmox tags (no UI configuration needed):
#### Available Tags
- **`pulse-no-alerts`** - Completely disables all alerts for this VM/CT
- **`pulse-monitor-only`** - Shows in UI but suppresses notifications (email, webhooks)
- **`pulse-relaxed`** - Increases thresholds (CPU/RAM to 95%, disk to 98%)
#### How to Use
1. In Proxmox, edit your VM/CT
2. Add one or more tags in the Options tab
3. Pulse picks up changes within 30-60 seconds (no restart needed)
#### Examples
```bash
# Via Proxmox CLI
pvesh set /nodes/pve/lxc/100/config -tags 'production,pulse-monitor-only'
pvesh set /nodes/pve/qemu/200/config -tags 'dev,pulse-no-alerts'
pvesh set /nodes/pve/lxc/300/config -tags 'database,pulse-relaxed'
# Multiple tags work together
pvesh set /nodes/pve/lxc/400/config -tags 'pulse-relaxed,pulse-monitor-only'
```
Perfect for:
- Development VMs that shouldn't trigger alerts
- Services that naturally run hot (databases, media servers)
- Temporary maintenance windows (add tag, remove when done)
