Action Suppression
You configure action suppression for a specific time period to apply to a specific object or several objects. The following entities can be the objects of action suppression:
- Application
- Business Transaction
- Tier
- Node
- JMX
- Machine
Within the time period configured for the action suppression, no policy actions are fired for health rule violation events that occur on the specified object(s).
Please refer to the Action Suppression API documentation for further details.
1. Application action suppression

If not specified, --suppress-start value defaults to current date and time, and --suppress-duration defaults to 60 minutes:
./start.sh -c http://appd.saas.com -a MyApp --username=appd --password=appd --suppress-action
These values can be explicitly set as well:

To specify the name of the action, use --suppress-name parameter and provide action name as a value. In case when it is not specified, name is going to be auto-generated.
