This pattern is useful when operations teams want upcoming work visible before the window starts.

It comes from the source example at Examples/Add-Maintenance1.ps1.

When to use this pattern

• You need to announce planned maintenance.
• The status page is generated from local event files.
• You want maintenance records to be scriptable.

Example

Import-Module .\Statusimo.psd1 -Force

New-StatusimoMaintenance -Title 'Hyper-V scheduled maintenance' `
    -DateStart (Get-Date).AddDays(5) `
    -DateEnd (Get-Date).AddDays(6).AddHours(2) `
    -Service 'Hyper-V' `
    -Overview 'Updating core infrastructure for Hyper-V.' `
    -FolderPath "$PSScriptRoot\Maintenance"

What this demonstrates

• creating a planned event
• using dates and services in the event record
• feeding the status page generator
