Starting up with notifications disabled

I’m doing a upgrade from CRE to CEE, and migrating to new hosts at the same time.

As this is a bit more involved that a simple upgrade, I want to make sure the new installs look right before activating notifications, so that our Service Desk does not get spammed.

Any suggestions on how to do this neatly?

Hi,
you can use the automation user and this URL:

https://CMKHost/YourSite/check_mk/switch_master_state.py?_do_actions=yes&_transid=-1&site=YourSite&state=0&switch=enable_notifications&_username=automation&_secret=YourSecret&_ajaxid=-1

As addition to @kdeutsch suggestions you can also disable the notification in your site before you stop it for the upgrade. This global state is remembered also if upgrade the site.
After the upgrade and check that all is running fine enable the global notifications again.

Thanks @andreas-doehler and @kdeutsch - that worked great! We have been migrated for nearly two months now, and the cut-over was pretty much painless, thanks to your help!
