# Team-wide maintenance

By enabling Team-wide maintenance, all monitors, heartbeats, and integrations will be temporarily or indefinitely paused, and any incidents occurring within the timeframe will be ignored.

This is especially useful if, for example, all your monitors are running on the same server that will not be reachable.

<div style="position: relative; padding-bottom: 56.25%; height: 0; overflow: hidden;">
  <iframe 
    style="position: absolute; top: 0; left: 0; width: 100%; height: 100%;" 
    src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/Z1KVw6ztmsw" 
    title="YouTube video player" 
    frameborder="0" 
    allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" 
    referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" 
    allowfullscreen>
  </iframe>
</div>

To enable Team-wide maintenance:

1. Go to **Settings** → **[Teams](https://betterstack.com/settings/teams ";_blank")**.
2. Click the three dots on the desired team and select **Features**.
3. Select the desired duration in the **Team-wide maintenance** section.
