Well it is almost same as putting the TIME parameter in hobbit-alerts.cfg in the sense that, I cannot say why the service should be ignored.
In DOWNTIME=6:1730:2030:"Backup running"
I cannot use that "cause" string with TIME either.
Plus it could be much simpler to define 2 hrs routine outage with DOWNTIME for a specific service than the other 22 hrs when it should be running using TIME parameters, specially when the outage does not happend at the begin or end of the timerange, but in the middle.
Hence requesting a feature
DOWNTIME=day:starttime:endtime:TESTname:"cause"

How about the TIME parameter for that host in hobbit-clients.cfg (before the 'regular' one for that host)?

Is it possible to define DOWNTIME just for a service like `disk' instead of the all services of a host
For example:
1.2.3.4 <http://1.2.3.4> oracle.domain.com <http://oracle.domain.com> # DOWNTIME=6:1800:2030
does not mention any service name.
Is its still same w/ hobbit 4.2?
Would be nice if I could add the service name like this
1.2.3.4 <http://1.2.3.4> oracle.domain.com <http://oracle.domain.com> # DOWNTIME=disk:6:1800:2030
This host's disk space goes way above threshold for about 2 hrs on Saturdays as a normal behavior
I could use the TIME parameter on hobbit-alerts.cfg to define the time outside that timeframe to be alerted only, but that won't stop it being `red' on the web.
