You can also look at all ongoing outages across your monitored services by clicking on the "View Ongoing Outages" button. 4. You can look at previous outages across your monitored services by clicking on the "View Past Outages" button. This takes you to the [Availability](/incidenthub-documentation/availability.md) page.Auto-Detecting Components The Outages panel is available on all user plans, including free. If you have [configured components](/incidenthub-documentation/services/monitoring-a-service.md#choosing-components-to-monitor) for a service, you will see only see those outages that are affected by at least one of those components. If you did not configure any components, all outages for a service will show up in the list. This is true for the maintenance view also.

E.g. if you set 6 hours, you will get an upcoming maintenance reminder 6 hours there is a future maintenance in your services. 2. Not all services support upcoming maintenance reminders. 3. Setting a maintenance reminder does not affect your outage alerts, or alerts for maintenance events that are ongoing. You can configure the latter on a per-service basis. 4. Your maintenance reminders will be sent to all your notification channels, except ticketing systems like Zendesk, Freshdesk, etc. A maintenance reminder looks like this (example from a Slack channel):
