Thanks again!
DOWNTIME=*:1930:0730:nightlyoff,5:0000:2359:OffSaturday,6:0000:2359:OffSunday
6:0000:2359:OffSunday <--that is my only question before I try it - shouldn't it be 6 for Sunday and 5 for Saturday?

LMJ,
Excellent! That answers half my question - but now I need to disable it all day on the weekends; can you have two time frames in one downtime statement?

I have a device that shuts down at 7:30pm and comes back up at 7:30am. What is the best way to disable this host every single night? I would like it to be marked as disabled during this time, but I definitely do not want the bb.html, bb2.html and bb.wml showing up red - red is bad! I also need it to stop sending email alerts.
Would DOWNTIME= be what am I looking for? If so can someone explain how the day:starttime:endtime:cause[,day:starttime:endtime:cause] gets filled it?
I need it to be every weekday in the evenings and nights as well as every weekend.
I had almost the same issue : do not display databases connection errors during the night backup, here we go :
ip.ip.ip.ip name # conn foo bar NAME:"Nice Name" DOWNTIME=*:1930:0730:MyReason
That's it ;)
Test this : DOWNTIME=*:1930:0730:MyReason,5:0000:2359:OffSaturday,5:0000:2359:OffSunday
What do you think about this one ? ;)
