Account Settings - Edit Schedules

In the web interface, click on "Setup | Schedules" in the main menu to open the "Schedules" settings. Here you can define a timetable that can later be used to pause monitoring for groups, servers or sensors based on time and day of week, as well as pause the delivery of notifications.

In the account settings, schedules are managed centrally. Once a schedule has been created, you can use it in the object settings (for either a probe, group, device or sensor) at the "Inherit Schedules and Dependencies" entry. For instructions on how to use the schedules you are editing here, see section Schedules.
