    Hi, we sometimes have maintenance of certain nodes. Just wonder if there is a feature that can temporarily disable monitoring of nodes so that we don't get alert message?

    Many thanks!

    Pedro

      Hi!

      Yes, you can right-click on node and select "unmanage". Then node will be put to "unmanaged" state and excluded from monitoring. To bring it back, select "manage" from context menu.

      Best regards,
      Victor

        Hi Victor, thanks for your reply!

        The problem of this "unmanage" and "manage" approach doesn't work well for Switches because we unmanage those ports connecting to end user's computers to avoid generate alarms. When we use this approach "unmanage" and "manage", all the "unmanage" port will be reset and we need to set it again.

        Any other approaches we can disable monitoring temporarily? Thanks!

          You have to options here:

          1. Start using expected port state "ignore" for end users' ports instead of unmanaging them. Then you can use manage/unmanage on switch level without problems (additional benefit here is that you still be able to see link state of a port, but it's status will always be normal).

          2. Add temporary rule in the beginning of event processing policy which will stop processing of all events from given node.

          Best regards,
          Victor
