Automating the suspension of fault monitoring

rtuttle · ‎02-27-2009

I have a need to do two tasks, one to suspend monitoring and alerting with DFM for a maintenance window. It will take all the access to devices down for 3 hours.

Second, I also get requests from other engineers that they have a change and they (due to me sending them alerts!) have started requesting suspension of a device and or a site for a period lalala, while they do a change.

I need to do this automatically, or I will have to get up at 0200! I really really dont want to do that.

Any help? Can I use the CLI to do this? Maybe a cmd file with the Wait command? Thanks,

You asked a similar question before:

You can put these CLI commands into a script, and schedule the script to run using the Windows Scheduler system (i.e. the AT command).

After the window is over, you can have another script runs that re-manages the devices.
