Filebeat suspension

Is there a way to suspend Filebeat from sending logs during a particular day of the week, between two timestamps (like during maintenance period)

What you could do is take advantage of the Beats Configuration Reloading feature: https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/beats/filebeat/7.0/filebeat-configuration-reloading.html. Using this feature you could have a cronjob (or equivalent) toggle the log input's enabled setting at the appropriate times.
