maintenance windows
To track 'up-time' (probably using a custom metric) which can be used at 3, 6 and 12 month intervals to show the servers uptime accurately. But it would be useful to ensure that data from with the Maintenance Window is not included. Therefore it would be very useful to have the option to either suspend data collection for some or all custom metrics during the Maintenance Window, or even suspend all data collection during the window.
quite an invasive change to how maintenance windows work to serve an edge case – See this for a better approach: https://sqlmonitor.uservoice.com/forums/91743-suggestions/suggestions/12881094-custom-reports-against-alerts-queries-and-metrics

Thanks for the suggestion Chris, this seems like it would be a useful option so we've added it to our tracking.
Thanks
