### Understand the alert
This alert monitors if Pi-hole's ability of blocking unwanted domains is active. If you receive this alert, it means that your Pi-hole's ad filtering is currently disabled.
### Troubleshoot the alert
1. Check the status of Pi-hole
To check the current status of Pi-hole, run the following command:
```
pihole status
```
This command will show if Pi-hole is active or disabled.
2. Re-enable Pi-hole
If Pi-hole is disabled as per the status, you can re-enable it by running the following command:
```
pihole enable
```
3. Confirm Pi-hole is enabled
After running the previous command, run `pihole status` again to confirm that Pi-hole is now enabled and blocking unwanted domains.
4. Check for errors or warnings
If Pi-hole is still not enabled, take a look at the logs for any errors or warnings:
```
cat /var/log/pihole.log | grep -i error
cat /var/log/pihole.log | grep -i warning
```
5. Rebuild the blocklist
If you still face issues, you can try rebuilding the blocklist by running:
```
pihole -g
```
6. Update Pi-hole
If the problem persists, consider updating Pi-hole to the latest version:
```
pihole -up
```
