Maintenance Windows in Automation Systems

Automation systems should urgently include the ability to enable or disable maintenance mode on one or more devices. After all, if the automation system performs actions that cause a check to become critical—and could potentially trigger an alarm—technicians working 24/7 might be woken up unnecessarily by a phone call, simply because I’m performing a scheduled server restart within the automation system.

On the one hand, this could be implemented in the “Restart Device” block, but there are also other actions that could benefit from this feature. Therefore, I would (also) like to see a separate block specifically for controlling maintenance mode.

    Der eigene Baustein ist inzwischen da 🙂 Mit Wartungsmodus kannst du während einer Automatisierung ein Wartungsfenster setzen und wieder aufheben. Dabei legst du fest, was pausieren soll – beispielsweise die Alarmierung. Danke für den Vorschlag!
