Cloud SQL No Maintenance Window Configured

Maintenance can restart the instance at any time, so an unavoidable restart is as likely to land in business hours as out of them.

Free to start. No card. The playground just needs your work email.

01

Detect

ZopNight checks this automatically across Google Cloud, with read-only access to the account.

02

Explain

Every finding says exactly what to change: Configure a maintenance window on Cloud SQL instance.

03

Fix

The finding opens with the fix already written out, step by step, so it is one ticket, not an investigation.

Applies to
Cloud SQL on Google Cloud
The fix, by hand
  1. Open Cloud Console → SQL → Instances → the resource → Edit.
  2. Under Maintenance, pick a day-of-week and hour that overlaps your lowest-traffic period.
  3. Save. Patches will only apply inside the chosen window.

These are the steps the finding carries in the product.
