Firstly, I hope this is the right forum!

I need to do some network maintenance this weekend, and I don't want the ESX cluster to initiate any HA action if they lose connection to the network for a short time. I just want to check that the best (and only?) way of achieving this is to temporarily disable the 'Enable Host Monitoring' option for the cluster in vCenter.

Previously, when I hadn't checked this option and had to do some network changes, the cluster initiated HA, and it took me ages to recover from it.

Thanks
