Auto-Scheduling
For recurring maintenance, set up auto-scheduling with weekly, monthly, or custom intervals.
Weekly:
Day: Sunday
Time: 02:00 - 04:00
Duration: 2 hours
Monthly:
Week: First
Day: Saturday
Time: 01:00 - 05:00Best Practices
- Schedule in advance (24-48 hours notice)
- Choose low-traffic times
- Be specific about what's being done
- List all affected services
- Update if delayed
- Confirm when maintenance is complete
Consider using maintenance windows for any planned changes that might affect service, even if you don't expect downtime. This sets expectations and reduces confusion if issues occur.
