ASM Monitor API showing incorrect maintenance windows .

Products

• CA App Synthetic Monitor

Issue/Introduction

The Maintenance window does not appear for some monitors in UI.  

But when we do a GET for  that  monitor  via  api  it  shows multiple maintenanceGroupId  assigned  to  it.  Also  the  one which  no  longer  exists.​/monitors​/{id}

Environment

Release : SAAS

Component : APP SYNTHETIC MONITOR ENVIRONMENTAL

Cause

This is by design. The Maintenance windows are still attached to the monitor and also "visible" in the UI, when you use their id in URL, such as

https://asm.saas.broadcom.com/en/settings/maintenance-window/edit/111111

What makes it different to the one active,

https://asm.saas.broadcom.com/en/settings/maintenance-window/edit/222222

is that that one still has a Time Window waiting (to be active in the future), while the former two don't have any Time windows to get active in the future. We call this Maintenance window as "passed" and in that case it is not show in UI, unless it's marked as "Persistent". If a Maintenance window has the persistent flag checked, it's displayed forever.

 

 

Resolution

ASM PM is  considering some API changes to make it easier.
