[SA-list] Maintenance Mode thought

[Andr� Karvelas]

I was just thinking if it were at all possible for someone to come up with a "client" that, if when a server is shutdown for maintenance, that this "client" would put the relevant server in to maintenance mode and then when the server comes back up the "client" changes the mode back to active. So as to avoid the administrator's forgetfulness to do so and getting unwanted alerts.   Just a thought for the programming brains to ponder over.   Andr� South Africa
