Opalis Integration Pack for HP OpenView Operations (Solaris) > Objects > Set Scheduled Outage

Set Scheduled Outage
The Set Scheduled Outage object causes HP OpenView to ignore a collection of messages that match rules that you specify. Any messages that you disable using the Set Scheduled Outage object can also be re-enabled using the Set Scheduled Outage object using the Opalis generated ID of the rule that was created.
Note: When setting a scheduled outage it is important to save the outage Id somewhere where it can be retrieved so that the outage can be disabled later.
How it is used
You can use the Set Scheduled Outage object to ignore a collection of messages at the start of maintenance procedure to prevent false messages from being generated that are related to the maintenance procedure that you are performing.
Configuration
To configure the Set Scheduled Outage object you will need to know the rules that define the messages that you are ignoring or the ID of the message that you are re-enabling.
