Are your external IP checks dependent on any other check?  If so, you could 
place the parent on maintenance (manually or via a schedule), and the dependent 
items won’t be monitored.

 

If those external IP checks are not dependent, could they be?  It would take 
front-end work to get it set up, but this weekend, and in the future, you would 
easily be able to exclude these checks from monitoring with a few simple clicks.

Subject: [SA-list] Temp checking schedule change

 

We are having a security audit done this weekend could expect a flood of 
traffic to our external facing IP’s during a set time.

 

Is there a way to add a temp checking schedule for that time without wiping out 
my current settings? I looked at a Global Change but am afraid I’ll lose 
all my other settings. 

 

I guess I could save the original host file – make the changes I need and 
re-save that file as a different name – once done re-apply the original 
host file.

 

Still it would be nice to make temp changes now and again?
