For starters -- well, don't do that.  The guys I work with get a royal 
beating if they turn stuff off, when there are things like 
acknowledgements and downtimes that will expire themselves and save you 
from the inevitable "something broke while we forgot we had the 
monitoring turned off."

If you have a check you only want done periodically, and know generally 
how often you want to check, set up a suitable check interval. Likewise, 
if you want a check to just shut up for a while, put it in downtime, and 
have the downtime expire at around the same time you think you'd like to 
check it again.
