Hi,

If the SLO created is refering to a synthetic you can use one of this metrics in the SLOs:

As I've tested, using other availability metric, even synthetics, although you create a maintance window for the element, it doesn´t work.

Maybe someone can provide a better answer by me.

Hope it helps.

Regards,

Elena.

I think the idea with a SLOs in general is to measure the Service Level in its "raw" form, inclusive of any maintenance activities (whether planned or not) which may occur. One potential way to deal with this would be to adjust the SLO target level so that it accounts for any regularly planned downtime.
