In database you probably has notification settings-whenever you have problem in database you will be notified by e-mail.

However, when you plan to bring your database down for maintenance, you can indicate that you do not want alert notifications to be sent to you by defining a blackout period.

Blackouts also allow you to suspend monitoring in order to perform other maintenance operations.

You can easily do it from Enterprise Manager.

2)In database homepage at the top right corner click the "setup".
3)Click "Blackouts" at the left pane.
