Maintenance Windows
Plan Downtime Without False Alerts
Schedule maintenance windows to suppress monitoring alerts during planned downtime. Keep your team from getting paged for expected outages.
Scheduled Downtime Done Right
Maintenance is necessary. Getting paged for planned downtime is not. Maintenance windows tell StatusDrift when to expect outages so alerts are suppressed automatically.
- Scheduled windows — Set start and end times in advance
- Per-monitor or global — Affect specific monitors or everything
- Recurring schedules — Weekly maintenance windows that repeat automatically
- Status page integration — Automatically show maintenance on your status page
- Auto-close — Windows end automatically at the scheduled time
How It Works
Schedule in Advance
Create a maintenance window with a start time, end time, and which monitors are affected. Do this hours or days before the actual maintenance.
Automatic Suppression
When the maintenance window starts, monitoring continues but alerts are suppressed. Your team won’t be paged for expected downtime.
Auto-Resume
When the window ends, normal alerting resumes automatically. If something is still down, you’ll be notified immediately.
