In that case try...
DOWNTIME=*:1800:1830

Jason,
Have you tried removing ":Backups"? I had problems using a comment at the end so I just removed mine and it worked fine.

Argh!
I don't want to answer my PDA every night at 6pm because of a stupid backup job overloading the CPU and DB. L There has to be a way to get this to work...

That syntax looks right.
Unfortunately, I think it's just broken. I've been fighting this all week. I've tried DOWNTIME, TIME on the HOST line of hobbit-alerts.cfg, TIME with IGNORE.
I've tried it with a bogus alarm, and with procs. I had it working with a bogus alarm, but it always ignores procs.
bbcmd hobbitd_alerts .... parses it correctly, and you think you're going to get what you want. But then 2:11am the oncall is still paged.
I have this on Solaris 10 (in a zone) with Hobbit 4.2.0 and yesterday upgraded to Xymon 4.2.2. Same deal.

Hey everyone,
I'm having problems with the DOWNTIME: tag on a host as it appears not to be working. Can anyone see what I am doing wrong?
