The format for DOWNTIME is the following: DOWNTIME=day:starttime:endtime[,day:starttime:endtime] DOWNTIME=columns:day:starttime:endtime:cause[,columns:day:starttime:endtime:cause]So search for lines which don't match those formats. The error would seem to suggest that instead of one of the attributes it got the word maintenance so you could search for "=maintenance" or ":maintenance" to see where the value is.
If you have dynamically generated your config file from a CMDB then the template you have used for the line has gone wrong somewhere, I'd suggest debugging that code to find out why it has corrupted an entry.

Ps. Try grepping for 'downtime', grep -i downtime
