It would be very useful to have the ability to add a recurring schedule from the maintenance mode drop down.
Currently you can only schedule a one time event:
Still working on this?

Running into an issue where we need to create maintenance windows within SolarWinds. Hoping I was able to do this I created a group for the nodes that are in this window but unfortunately this cannot be done from what I have found.
so yes, Bump
It's possible, but not easy. You need to use the API and Task Scheduler. I've got a write-up here: Unmanaging and suppressing alerts for applications - Scheduled recurring maintenance windows and there are a few others who have posted their solutions as well in the same forum.
Much needed in solarwind orion tool
2020 Marching toward schedule maintenance bump!
Is this on the roadmap yet? It is really needed.
Also allow multiple schedules to be applied to a node, group of nodes, WPM transaction, etc.
I need this. BUMP!
Need this too. so many votes so far, any news?
Bump!!! Sad this is not a feature!!!
T -2 months to hit the four year mark on this thread bump
Bump ?
BUMP
4 Year BUMP! and I can no longer @ Jason.carrier, has he left and this has been abandoned?
So I have been told that the "Unmanage Scheduling Utility" has been deprecated. So why is the recurring maintenance not configured in you new "schedule Maintenance" settings.
Any updates on this?
Is there any progress on recurring scheduled server maintenance. This is a must for simple things like Windows Updates on servers.
Upvoted, bump!
Please also add the possibility to add MULTIPLE recurring maintenance with the parameters you can find in any monitoring tool (daily, weekly, monthly etc ...). Also please add the same thing for GROUPS.
FYI on our side we are using custom props that are retrieved by a scheduled script which, then call the api to set the correct maintenance
I really hope this can make it into the next release.I don't care where you put it (drop down, node settings etc.).The fact that it hasn't been integrated into the web interface yet is amazing (in a bad way )The current Unmanage Scheduling Utility is cumbersome to work with and with new security requirements nearly unusable because the staff in our company that needs to set unmanage schedules can't have access to the server to setup the scheduled tasks.
Great to see this as WWWO
The maintenance schedule also needs to be smart and follow the calendar.
Feature Request: Conditional Maintenance Windows Based on Patch Tuesday
Summary: Request the ability to define recurring maintenance windows that are conditional on the occurrence of Microsoft Patch Tuesday.
Use and Need: In environments where maintenance activities are driven by the release of Microsoft security updates, it is essential to ensure maintenance windows occur only after Patch Tuesday. This feature would prevent premature maintenance cycles and align patching and validation processes. Specifically, we require maintenance windows (e.g., 2nd Friday of each month) to execute only if Patch Tuesday (2nd Tuesday of the month) has already occurred within that same month
Is this a duplicate, or overlap with [mention:2bc1871ca8c94bab94cda9e413653abf:fb5d84b10a5745448a7a45dafc1faa43] ?
I wouldn't say so. The node management rights mentioned relates mostly to user permissions.
