Setting Security
Center client applications in
maintenance mode
If you are changing the configuration settings of your system, you can set all Security
Center client applications (Security Desk) in
maintenance mode so that the health statistics for your applications are not
affected.
What you should know
Unexpected downtime (when an application is unavailable) affects the health statistics
of that application. However, when an application is in maintenance mode, the downtime
is considered expected downtime, and is not used in calculating the availability of
that
application.NOTE: Setting an application in maintenance mode does not stop the health events, but
it reports all health events as information only.
To set a Security
Center client
application in maintenance mode:
-
Open the System task, and click the Roles
view.
-
Select the Health Monitor, and then click the Properties
tab.
-
Switch the Client app. maintenance mode option to
ON, and click Apply.
