Subject: [SPAM] - [WhatsUp Forum] WUGPRO: Question Regarding "Mainetenance 
Mode" - Found word(s) to be removed in the Text body

When an object is placed into maintenance mode, is that object still polled and 
if so are the statistics logged?

What I am looking for is two numbers on each object, Availability and 
Reliability.

Availability being the % of time the system was available on the network (via 
ping).

Reliability being the % of time, during service hours, the system was available 
on the network (via ping).


eg: 

If a server must provide services from 9am-5pm, then we would schedule the 
device to be in maintenance mode, from 5pm to 9am the next morning.  The admins 
can do anything they like to the server during those hours.  As long as the 
server was up from 9-5 the reliability would be 100%.

What we would still like to know is how "available" the server was over the 
reporting period.  Meaning we want the % of time the server actually was on the 
network and responding to ping over the reporting period.

If I remember correctly, the old wug option, disabling monitoring, caused the 
server not to be polled at all while monitoring was turned off.

Does anyone know for sure if the maintenance mode option does the same thing?
