Hi While we're on the topic Dirk, we have a number of help desk staff who I'd love to be able to give the ability to use the MAINTENANCE UNTIL feature without having to enable full GUI access. Presently, they're able to put checks into maintenance by using the SAWeb add-on but as you well know, this does not give us the "UNTIL" functionality and as such, relies on someone remembering to take it out of maintenance when the work is done.
I know that granular user permissions could get very complicated from a development perspective but having put some thought into it, I only really see the need for three levels of access: Admin - Full Access (obviously) Operator - Able to utilise the "MAINTENANCE UNTIL" feature View Only - Able to view status of checks Any chance you could keep this in mind for future versions??? As always, feel a bit guilty for asking for more from a product which is already doing a fantastic job for us but feel this would be a feature which would benefit quite a few people. Thanks!

You could set MAINTENANCE UNTIL ... And after the given date/time it becomes an active entry again.

Is there a way to set a "timed" maintenance mode for a server being checked by ServersAlive? I find that sometimes a server will be put into maintenance mode and then, unfortunately, not be turned back on after the planned outage/maintenance is completed. Thanks for any help!
