I think that’s not what people are seeing, probably more of this sort of thing:

PING softlayer.ip (softlayer.ip): 56 data bytes
Request timeout for icmp_seq 0
Request timeout for icmp_seq 1
64 bytes from softlayer.ip: icmp_seq=2 ttl=46 time=361.999 ms

Request timeout for icmp_seq 8
Request timeout for icmp_seq 9

Request timeout for icmp_seq 13
64 bytes from softlayer.ip: icmp_seq=14 ttl=46 time=350.946 ms

^C
--- softlayer.ip ping statistics ---
17 packets transmitted, 5 packets received, 70.6% packet loss
round-trip min/avg/max/stddev = 350.946/355.508/361.999/3.635 ms

There will be gaps in the metric data once the service is restored for the outage period during the maintenance window.  Alerting will be unavailable during the downtime and there may be some alerts triggered after the downtime due to the missing metric data depending on your alert configurations.
