this is not supported currently, but you can simply use cron to
enable/ disable monitoring if the service when needed.

You can set the monitoring mode to manual (se the service is not
automatically monitored) like this:

  check process foobar with pidfile /var/run/foobar.pid
    start program = "..."
    stop program = "..."
    mode manual

and cron entries:

0 8 * * * /usr/bin/monit monitor foobar
0 19 * * * /usr/bin/monit unmonitor foobar

Interesting. Will that also work with a "check host" statement (as I
don't use "check process" at all)?


Yes - the "check process ..." was just example, it will work with any type of check. You can also use "monit [un]monitor <service>" from command line.
