Adam, I just recreated this, this is what I did and what happened

1. Pick a server, go to properties/alerts.

2. Set “ignore until” to 1 hr in the future

3. Shutdown that server

After the server shut down and a poling cycle passed, the observium screen shows

And

What do you mean by “still get alerted”?

Sorry if this is an obvious question but I have been playing with this and it does not behave the way I am expecting… under device properties/alerts there is an “ignore until” option as well as a “disable notifications” toggle….

If I set the “ignore until” to sometime in the future and I (for example) restart the device…I still get alerted.  If I toggle the “disable notifications” , I do not get the notifications anymore…however, it stays disabled past the “ignore until” time

How is this feature supposed to work?

I am looking for a way to put a device in “maintenance mode” so that if I am upgrading etc…no alerts are generated and no notifications are sent.
