I quite like the new “host unreachable” notification Cloudflare, thanks for introducing it.
On this occasion it occurred whilst I was patching my DEV servers.
Can I make a feature suggestion:
The ability to tag DNS hostnames with a certain environment (e.g. DEV, STAGING, PROD etc)
Toggle a certain environment or individual hostname as in maintenance mode
Untoggle the same once
The idea being that if there’s an outage whilst an environment is in maintenance mode that it’s not alerted upon.
Thanks,
Chris

It would appear there is a third party Cloudflare application for the maintenance mode

Thank you for your suggestion. Edgy looks like a maintenance mode banner but it doesn’t mention anywhere about bypassing host unavailable notifications which is what I’m asking for.

I would assume it returns a 200, so your monitor wouldnt consider that as outage.
