In my current environment, SolarWinds is directly integrated with ServiceNow. I’m seeking guidance on how to efficiently schedule maintenance windows in bulk, especially during our monthly patching cycles. Whenever patching is planned for a large number of servers within a specific time frame, I would like to apply…

This was a query I built some time ago but I'm posting it here now for others to use. I'm using the SDK forum since this would be for advanced users who understand SWQL and SWQL alerts. The purpose of this was to create an alert that could be triggered on a specific schedule. This was mainly for setting nodes into a…
Our backups run every night around 2 am. This sends a number of alerts due to latency and traffic on the network. Is there a way I can suppress the alerts during this time frame, or set a daily maintenance window? I attempted in alert manager to configure the email alert to suppress sending anything between that period but…
We are looking for ways to suppress/remove alerts that were generated during a maintenance window that we didn't get to schedule until after the event. As far as I can tell, this is not straightforward but I believe it can be done by forming a SQL script to exclude the data in scope from any relevant report. Does anyone…
Here's my take on a recurring, scheduled maintenance window for applications. We've got a hot/cold environment for one of our big in-house applications that rotates every two weeks. Unmanage: #Add-Pssnapin swissnapin Import-Module SwisPowerShell $start = (Get-Date).ToUniversalTime() $end = $start.AddDays(14) $swis =…
I would like to be able to schedule a weekly reoccurring maintenance window for servers that I reboot weekly. The goal of a monitoring solution is to notify you when something is an issue. Getting alerts to non issues tends to make people start to ignore alerts which in turn makes the monitoring solution useless. I want to…
Hey THWACK!

This is of course not all encompassing so if you've got…
Hi - Is there a way to send a client an email notification of a scheduled maintenance from NPM or from any of the Solarwinds platforms? It would also be great for these to show up in a report of some sort.
