How to blackout all of Foglight (4213624)

Foglight 6.3.0.5 and 7.1.4 introduce a new blackout type that allows disabling all alarms during a blackout.

The system:globalblackout command is available from the Foglight command-line interface with the following options and arguments:

• Enable the global blackout for a schedule: system:globalblackout -set -schedulename SCHEDULE_NAME
• Disable the global blackout: system:globalblackout -clear
• Display the configured global blackout: system:globalblackout -show

The following example shows the global blackout set for the schedule named Always.

fglcmd -usr foglight -pwd foglight -cmd system:globalblackout -set -schedulename Always
Global blackout schedule set to Always 30afa315-3131-48c2-b0e8-71fea187af4e

fglcmd -usr foglight -pwd foglight -cmd system:globalblackout -show
Global blackout schedule set to Always 30afa315-3131-48c2-b0e8-71fea187af4e

fglcmd -usr foglight -pwd foglight -cmd system:globalblackout -clear
Global blackout schedule is not set

Note: The command schedule:list can be used to list the available schedules.
