just don't use it. make a cron scheduling a downtime instead to suppress notifications. the code with timeperiods is not covering 100% of the cases where it could be triggered and calculating a valid next check time. tracker.nagios.org holds an old issue on that while you can also read about that on the nagios-devel mailinglist archives. > Brian -- DI (FH) Michael Friedrich Vienna University Computer Center Universitaetsstrasse 7 A-1010 Vienna, Austria email: michael.friedr...@univie.ac.at phone: +43 1 4277 14359 mobile: +43 664 60277 14359 fax: +43 1 4277 14338 web: http://www.univie.ac.at/zid http://www.aco.net Icinga Core& IDOUtils Developer http://www.icinga.org ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Get a FREE DOWNLOAD! and learn more about uberSVN rich system, user administration capabilities and model configuration.
