This alert triggers for all VMs and containers that are not running.
You may want to filter by specific guests using the `id` label, or exclude
intentionally stopped guests with additional label matchers.

Loss of quorum means the cluster cannot make decisions about VM placement
and fencing. This requires immediate attention.
