Adding a GSM gateway

We use email to SMS Service. It means we send an email notification to [myphonenumber]@gateway.com and they send the email message per sms directly to my phone. I don't see my cell phone company in the predefined list of gateways. How do I define a new gateway in NetCrunch?

Disabling monitoring engine on a node

I want to disable Linux monitoring engine on a node. How can I do that?

Disabling multiple nodes for a specific time

From time to time, I need to select 20-30 servers and schedule the nodes to be unmonitored from one date/time to another. Currently, the only way to do it is to go in one by one (which is quite tedious) and schedule each one. I was hoping there was some PowerShell back end to NetCrunch or later that would allow me to run a command instead.
