= Configuring a maintenance time window

You can configure a maintenance time window for rolling updates triggered by supported processes.

.Prerequisites

* A Kubernetes cluster.
* The Cluster Operator is running.

.Procedure

. Add or edit the `maintenanceTimeWindows` property in the `Kafka` resource. 
For example to allow maintenance between 0800 and 1059 and between 1400 and 1559 you would set the `maintenanceTimeWindows` as shown below:
+
[source,yaml,subs=attributes+]
----
apiVersion: {KafkaApiVersion}
kind: Kafka
metadata:
  name: my-cluster
spec:
  kafka:
    # ...
  zookeeper:
    # ...
  maintenanceTimeWindows:
    - "* * 8-10 * * ?"
    - "* * 14-15 * * ?"
----
+
. Create or update the resource.
+
This can be done using `kubectl apply`:
[source,shell,subs=+quotes]
kubectl apply -f _your-file_
