What's the main issue? Timeperiods with india-workhours and so on should work nicely for both *check_period and *notification_period, shouldn't it? Since you'd probably want templates to up timeouts and stuff when checking the really remote things anyway, I'm thinking it won't be much of a chore. -- Andreas Ericsson [EMAIL PROTECTED] OP5 AB www.op5.se Tel: +46 8-230225 Fax: +46 8-230231 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
