Maintenance Windows are time periods when VitalSigns does not attempt to monitor the specific server. This is useful for those time periods when you know the server will be down for backup, patches, etc. During this time VitalSigns will not send out any alerts about the server nor count any downtime

Step 1

Go To Hours & Maintenance -> Maintenance
Click the New () button (if you are editing a maintenance window, click the Edit () button next to the appropriate window name)
In the Name textbox, enter a name to define the Maintenance window
Select a Radio button for Duration Type
- Continue Until - Creates a maintenance window for a specific period of time
- Forever - Creates a maintenance window that does not expire (this field does not require you to specify an End Date)
Select a Start Date and Start Time
Select an End Date (Note: The End Date field does not apply to maintenance windows that have "Forever" selected as the Duration Type)
Select a Duration (the amount of time the server will not be scanned)

...

Select how often the Maintenance Window should occur (One time, Daily, Weekly, Monthly)
Note: for Weekly and Monthly occurrences, select how often the Maintenance Window should repeat
Select the specific servers in which the Maintenance Window will apply
For Key User monitoring, select the specific user(s) in which the Maintenance Window will apply (optional)
