# Place an alert into maintenance

You can manually place any alert into maintenance to hide it from the Alerts list and Agent Workspace.

## Before you begin

Role required: evt\_mgmt\_admin, evt\_mgmt\_operator

## About this task

Placing the alert in maintenance does not place the CI into maintenance. The **Status** field on the CI record remains the same.

## Procedure

1.  Navigate to **All** > **Event Management** > **All Alerts**.

2.  Perform one of the following actions.

<table id="choicetable_d3p_bch_1v"><tbody><tr><td id="d309820e89">

**To put multiple alerts into maintenance**

</td><td>

Select the check boxes next to each alert, and then click the **Maintenance** UI action at the top of the list.

</td></tr><tr><td id="d309820e101">

**To put one alert into maintenance**

</td><td>

Open the alert, and either select the **Maintenance** check box and click **Update**, or click the **Maintenance** UI action at the top of the list.

</td></tr></tbody>
