The best starting point is to view the KV store events from the Monitoring console. Then look for events that correspond to any issues and build alerts based on it.

Below is a sample query you can use to view health status of KV Stores. Alert on health_info -> red

|rest /services/server/info
|eval a=now()
|eval time=strftime(a,"%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S")
|table time host kvStoreStatus author health_info isForwarding server_roles
|sort host


 If the reply helps, a karma upvote would be appreciated.

Thanks for the reply but will prefer checking through the cli, maybe like a command to achieve that
