maintenance window
Planned system downtime
A maintenance window is a scheduled period during which computer systems, networks, or equipment can be taken offline for updates, repairs, or other work that might disrupt normal operations.
Organizations plan these windows during low-traffic hours—often late night or early morning—to minimize impact on users.
The server upgrade is scheduled for Saturday's maintenance window.
System administrators announce maintenance windows in advance so users can plan around potential downtime.
