# Modify the gateway maintenance window schedule
<a name="configure-maintenance-window-schedule"></a>

If maintenance updates are turned on, your gateway automatically applies these updates according the maintenance window schedule. Urgent updates will sometimes be applied during your configured maintenance window, regardless of the maintenance updates setting.

**Note**  
The following procedure describes how to modify the maintenance window schedule using the Storage Gateway console. To change this setting programmatically using the API, see [UpdateMaintenanceStartTime](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/storagegateway/latest/APIReference/API_UpdateMaintenanceStartTime.html) in the *Storage Gateway API Reference*.

**To modify the maintenance window schedule using the Storage Gateway console:**

1. Open the Storage Gateway console at [https://console.aws.amazon.com/storagegateway/home](https://console.aws.amazon.com/storagegateway/).

1. On the navigation pane, choose **Gateways**, and then choose the gateway for which you want to configure maintenance updates.

1. Choose **Actions**, and then choose **Edit maintenance settings**.

1. Under **Maintenance window start time**, do the following:

   1. For **Schedule**, choose **Weekly** or **Monthly** to set the maintenance window cadence.

   1. If you choose **Weekly**, modify the values for **Day of the week** and **Time** to set the specific point during each week when the maintenance window will begin.

      If you choose **Monthly**, modify the values for **Day of the month** and **Time** to set the specific point during each month when the maintenance window will begin.
**Note**  
The maximum value that can be set for day of the month is 28. It is not possible to set the maintenance schedule to start on days 29 through 31.  
If you receive an error while configuring this setting, it might mean that your gateway software is out of date. Considering updating your gateway manually first, and then attempt to configure the maintenance window schedule again.

1. Choose **Save changes** when finished.

You can verify the updated settings on the **Details** tab for the selected gateway in the Storage Gateway console.
