We want to supress the alert for lower env like SIT/DEV etc.. Not for prod. If anyone has some idea for the same or handy scripts / procedure, please share.

Also be aware, by suppressing alerts that are generated for outages, if you're not careful, you could set yourself up for a real situation being disregarded as a planned outage by the EM.  I would recommend investigating corrective actions that could be applied to a carefully planned metric extension to monitor for this type of situation.

With the introduction of EM13c, the AGENT now controls the blackout, the communication to the OMS and then the agent availability. This change is valuable to correcting this notification issue that [I believe] you're describing.
