Maintenances allow you to define time periods when systems will be unavailable for monitoring. During these maintenance windows, the monitoring connectors for affected systems are automatically placed in maintenance mode, preventing false alerts.

'Ad hoc
' - Manually started and stopped maintenance windows with no schedule'Scheduled
' - One-time maintenance at a specific date and time'Not Recurrent
' - One-time maintenance at a specific date and time'Recurrent
' - Repeating maintenance windows (daily, weekly, or monthly patterns)'Custom CRON
