It is imperative that there are scheduled maintenance times.
I mean that there should be time blocks where the agent/groups are not monitored.
I saw a few other posts about alerts being turned off during maintenance times. That could be another feature.
But in addition to not being notified during maintenance times, I would prefer to keep the history of the monitoring correct, ie. no failures logged when they are expected.
You're totally right. This is a planned feature for next version, probably will be done for 1.4 version (planned for Dec 2007).
I've think to add planned downtimes for "whole system", specific group or specific agents. This means that simply don't fire alerts, BUT monitoring will continue adquiring data, data that will be used to fill graphics and to generate SLA reports (with downtime included) and also events should be ignored (for UP/Down monitors).
