How to set Windows Maintenance for Synthetic Monitor?

H_THIM — Thu, 18 Dec 2025 10:56:00 GMT

Hello.

I want to set maintenance windows for the synthetic monitor (HTTP or ClickPath ).

I have some monitors that I don't want running on weekends, and some that I don't want running between 18H:00 and 23H:00 (only during office hours).

This means that during this time slot, like weekends and between 18H and 23:00, those synthetic monitors need to be disabled, or if they cannot be disabled, I want to avoid any outage handling.

I was thinking about setting maintenance windows for that.

Could you please advise how to do that?

Hi,

If you are in Grail, I would say Synthetic for Workflows. It has more flexible schedules.

If not, I would say combination of maintenance windows + Disable synthetic monitor execution . But I think you need to create more than one to have those schedules.

Best regards

Easiest - let the synthetics run all the time and create a maintenance window for when you don't want to alert/create problems
