As far as I know, and that's not far, maintenance windows should just set the devices to maintenance, so your general alerting rule won't fire due to the production state filter...
Do you have any alerting rule schedules? It's not clear from the above if you're (and Zenoss) is talking about Maintenance Windows or Alerting Schedules. I believe Alerting Schedules does disable the rule when the schedule is off? -- James Pulver Information Technology Area Supervisor LEPP Computer Group Cornell University blakemartin wrote, On 4/9/2009 3:13 PM: > Ahh, okay - so there's a nomenclature issue there... > > That is approximately when the non-business hours alerting schedule should be > stopping, so that makes sense. > > Here are the relevant Zenactions log entries: > > > Code: > 2009-04-07 17:58:59 DEBUG zen.Schedule: Maintenance window stopping Business > Hours Schedule for Business Hours > 2009-04-07 18:00:00 DEBUG zen.Schedule: Maintenance window starting Weekdays > Non-Biz Hours for Non-Business Hours > 2009-04-07 20:55:00 DEBUG zen.Schedule: Maintenance window starting VM Backup > for Windows > 2009-04-07 21:54:59 DEBUG zen.Schedule: Maintenance window stopping VM Backup > for Windows > 2009-04-08 06:58:59 DEBUG zen.Schedule: Maintenance window stopping Weekdays > Non-Biz Hours for Non-Business Hours > 2009-04-08 07:00:00 DEBUG zen.Schedule: Maintenance window starting Business > Hours Schedule for Business Hours > 2009-04-08 17:58:59 DEBUG zen.Schedule: Maintenance window stopping Business > Hours Schedule for Business Hours > 2009-04-08 18:00:00 DEBUG zen.Schedule: Maintenance window starting Weekdays > Non-Biz Hours for Non-Business Hours > 2009-04-08 20:55:00 DEBUG zen.Schedule: Maintenance window starting VM Backup > for Windows > 2009-04-08 21:54:59 DEBUG zen.Schedule: Maintenance window stopping VM Backup > for Windows > 2009-04-09 06:59:59 DEBUG zen.Schedule: Maintenance window stopping Weekdays > Non-Biz Hours for Non-Business Hours > 2009-04-09 07:00:00 DEBUG zen.Schedule: Maintenance window starting Business > Hours Schedule for Business Hours > > > > > It looks like the "Weekdays Non-Biz Hours" schedule is stopping and starting > properly, so why is the alerting rule ending up disabled?
