scheduling recurring downtime?

[Terry]

I too am trying to accomplish this.  What I did, but
not quite working yet, is create two new timeperiods. 
One called maintenence and another nonmaintenence. 
Then fill the times in as appropriate.  Create two
services as well, one for maintenence, and another for
nonmaintence.  Do whatever checks you need during this
time.  YOu can then turn off notifications or tailor
them as needed during your maintenence period.  The
major drawback to this idea is that you have to have
two services for each 1 service, one for nonmaintence
and another for the maintenence period.  I hope there
is a clever way to get around this.
