Description:
There is a basic API in place to control blackout periods:

https://enterprise.mysql.com/docs/monitor/1.2/en/mem-advisor-blackouts.html

Please, add a way to control this via Dashboard directly, without a need to use external scripts and/or OS-specific tasks scheduling tools.

How to repeat:
Try to setup monitoring to ignore information from agents during 1 a.m. - 2 a.m. every night :)

Suggested fix:
Add controls to Dashboard?

We've always intended to do this as part of our calendar-based scheduling support. Current "planned" for early 2009; but we'll reconsider doing that work sooner.

Added to 2.3.2 change log:

The Manage Servers page now has a menu option [Enable | disable]
event blackout. You can set up blackout periods through the Dashboard
in addition to scripting them through the REST API.
