How to stop monitoring of servers at the time of reboot through shell scripting?
We have number of servers which belongs to platforms Solaris, AIX,HP-UX and LINUX. Monitoring tool 'Patrol Agent' process run on the servers to check for the server health and communicate with the Patrol server through the port 5181. During scheduled reboot and maintenance of servers we do receive alarms/alerts due to the 'Connection Closed' for the nodes. Patrol agent Stop & Start process is automated through shell script during rebooting of the server. Hence we started receiving multiple requests from the users to bring the monitoring of servers into Maintenance mode which is a repeated process and very much time consuming.
So I am just thinking of trying to implement some automation process for keeping the servers in Maintenance mode throughout the time span while server is DOWN. Is there any process that we can implement on the servers through SHELL scripting so that the communication (through the TCP port) between the Patrol Server & Agent can be stopped just before executing the shutdown command and again resuming it as soon as the server is up and running? If so then we can consolidate and execute the new scripts which will stop FALSE alarming .

you should check with "Patrol Agent" software support first, if they can provide this function.
