Pause Monitoring per device

We're looking for a feature to pause all monitoring on a device.

I could have sworn this functionality used to exist, but neither I nor the LM support engineer could figure out how to do it.

Basically, we're having some systems with intermittent CPU spikes. In order to eliminate the possibility of a rogue datasource, it would be nice to pause monitoring on the device, that way we could retain historical data, but know for sure that Logicmonitor is no longer querying the device and eliminate LogicMonitor as a suspect.

 

Thanks!

    Currently, the only way to do this is to associate the device with a dead collector..... An inelegant hack, we know....

    Steve, does the fact that you call your solution a hack mean that you guys are working on a better way to do this?

    It means it's on the list of things to do - not currently at the top of the list, though....
