Maintenance

Use maintenance windows to suppress alerts during planned work.

Maintenance

Maintenance windows allow you to plan work (deployments, updates, migrations) without triggering noisy alerts.

During an active maintenance window, a service is treated as in maintenance and can be shown as such on public status pages.

Create a maintenance window

Go to Maintenance Windows and create a new window.

You can configure:

  • Target (exactly one)
  • Website
  • Service monitor (ICMP / SMTP / SSH / FTP / IMAP-POP)
  • Name and optional description
  • Start and end time
  • Active toggle (lets you disable a window without deleting it)

One-time vs recurring

Maintenance windows can be:

  • One-time (default)
  • Recurring

Recurring windows support a recurrence pattern (stored as JSON), for example:

  • daily
  • weekly (with days of week)
  • monthly (with day of month)

Status on public status pages

If a customer has a status page:

  • A service with active maintenance (and no open incidents) is shown as Maintenance.
  • Maintenance windows can also appear in Recent History (depending on the status page settings).

Note: If there is an open incident during a maintenance window, the service is shown as Degraded.

Troubleshooting

Window does not show as “active”

  • Verify Active is enabled.
  • Confirm current time is between start/end.
  • Ensure start/end times are correct for your timezone.
