Can I filter out an event by occruance time.

Can I filter out an event by occruance time.

I have a nightly job that stop/starts a service at a particular time each night. I have an alert setup for the service running, what is the best way to exclude that particular stop/start but ensure I'm notified of all other service down conditions.
Does eventlog have anything like the maintenance window setup in OpManager?
Thanks
