Alert when Cron job stop running

Hey Every one,
I have a cronjob that is running
when it fails it returns 2 different exit codes.
1st alert…if last exit code is 1 in the last 12 hours and the cronjob did run and failed in the last 12 hours
2nd alert…if last exit code is 2 in the last 12 hours and the cronjob did run and failed in the last 12 hours
3rd alert…if the cronjob did not run at all in the last 12 hours
this is the pormtehus query:
kube_pod_container_status_last_terminated_exitcode{container=“container name”}
The big problem is in the 3rd alert.
the problem is that the metric is present only when it fails
so the absence of the metric “killed” my alert.

Thank you in advance for your help!

Someone? Please?
