How to set maintenance windows for Davis Anomaly Detection alerts and workflows

[ravi_singh]

Problem statement:-
I want to stop my davis alerts from triggering during a fixed time window lets say between 1:30AM IST to 3:30AM IST
is there any way

Also i want to stop workflows execution between a certain time window how to do that, I know javascript might be one way to go but I think that spins a container for javascript execution, i don't want to bear extra cost for that, is there any other way

Hi @ravi_singh 

Dynatrace has a built-in Maintenance Window feature.

Navigate to Settings → Alerting → Maintenance windows (Classic UI) or Settings → Anomaly Detection → Maintenance windows (new UI)

Regarding 2nd question

Yes! There is a way to do this without spinning up a JavaScript container. Use a DQL Condition in your Workflow Trigger ( Zero Cost).

2nd option - If your workflow is triggered by Davis problems, and you've already set up a maintenance window (Part 1 above) with "Disable problem detection", then no problems will be created during that window → no Davis problem event → your workflow won't trigger at all. This is the simplest approach if your workflow trigger is Davis problem.

Thanks,
