AWS Certified SysOps Administrator - Associate49 / 150
Question 49 of 150

A SysOps administrator configures a CloudWatch alarm on a custom metric named JobQueueDepth that a batch-processing application publishes only when jobs are actively running. During idle periods, the application stops publishing the metric entirely. The team reports that the alarm frequently enters the INSUFFICIENT_DATA state during these idle periods, generating unwanted SNS notifications. The team wants the alarm to be treated as healthy (not in ALARM) when no data is being reported. Which action should the administrator take to resolve this?
