Recurring Maintenance Window
Greetings!
Certain hosts in my environment have a recurring maintenance window. During the maintenance window, I want to suppress any alert notifications or event escalations for that particular group of hosts.
I am sure it is possible, just trying to get ideas on how to best accomplish this goal.
Thanks in advance for the ideas!

My Idea is:
1) Should change exists Host class and add some attribute for example xSuppress = Boolean.
2) Should create Server Tool, when you want to suppress events for host or hostgroup you running this Server tools, that set field xSuppress to TRUE.
3) In Global Manager->NotificationList->Edit Filter - set ASL script, in ASL need to change all device for xSuppress, if xSuppress is True , then show no event for this device.
I do not know if it will work, but it is possible to make attempt

first question: which SAM release are you running on ? If 7.x, then you do have the maintenance feature which should meet your requirements. Using this feature, you only have to send a "Maintenance event" to SAM for the maintenance period, for each host.
Hope this helps,

Hi , if you don't mind creating a notification list and filter out the notification with "In Maintenance=YES", you will not see the alerts on the console.
But if you do want to suppress them, maybe a dxa hook script or asl script is required.
