Disabling/Enabling multiple rules/monitors/discoveries at once

One of the things I have heard on several occasions is that people want to disable or enable a number of rules/monitors/discoveries at once. Currently its only possible to enable or disable one at a time. This can be an issue when you are trying to disable 100 rules. To help with this problem I created a utility that allows you to multiselect a number of rules/monitors/discoveries and create an override to either disable them or enable them.

The link to the zip file is at the bottom of this post.

Doesn't seem to work with 2007 SP1?

Boris, incorporate some versioning into these tools.

BTW:  The tools are invaluable to me, thanks.

Hi!

This is an essential tool that should be expanded and, preferably added to the Authoring pane.

What I lack is the ability to select a MP, have three options, Monitors, Rules, Discoveries. And then disable the selected options for the entire MP.

We use this for different classes of servers that should not have all the monitoring running.

Keep up the good work

Roger
