  • 1.  Apply a maintenance mode schedule to a global collection

    Posted Apr 18, 2019 02:12 PM

    Business case

    We do not care to receive alarms from lower level devices at some of our remote branches. We would like to accomplish one of the following.

    • Place the global collection containing the devices in scheduled maintenance mode
    • Ignore alarm creation for devices in that global collection for x time (we are looking at outside of business hours like a 9pm to 5 am timeframe) for all alarms on that device.

    I was thinking of a policy to place them into maintenance mode, but it only allows for regular maintenance not for a schedule. Maybe there is an attribute for the maintenance mode schedules that I could use in the policies?

    Any help is appreciated

    Martina,


    The only way I can think to do this is with a couple of CLI scripts. One to find all the models in the GC and set the isManaged attribute 0x1295d to No and the other to find all the models in the GC and set the isManaged attribute 0x1295d to Yes. Then, schedule one to run at 9:00 PM and the other to run at 5:00 AM.
