I have been running SEC as a method to front-end trouble ticketing via 
HP ServiceCenter.  One of the problems I have not figured out is how to 
dynamically schedule context creation so that I can bypass the ticket 
creation if there is a known maintenance window.  I have very little 
clue on how to develop a dynamic scheduler in SEC.  I am looking for 
ideas; has this problem already been tackled?  I am thinking that I 
might be able to employ the perl module Schedule::At  
(http://search.cpan.org/~joserodr/Schedule-At-1.08/At.pm), but that may 
not be necessary.  I think that the actual maintenance window should be 
sent through the event stream.

Lets say that there is a known maintenance window on a particular device 
(router, switch).  I would like to do a search of the network topology 
starting at the device that the maintenance window is declared, and 
create a context for each one of the managed devices below that point.  
The context creation should have a defined date/time of birth, and a 
defined life time.

Regards,
Tim
