[hobbit] IGNORE alert setting

You might try to use 2 separate rules:

IGNORE HOST=* SERVICE=bckp TIME=*:0000:0700 IGNORE HOST=* SERVICE=bckp TIME=*:2000:2359

Thanks, Larry Barber

Hi all,

I am trying to set up a rule for ignoring all alerts for a certain
service
during a given time:

I've tried:

IGNORE HOST=* SERVICE=bckp TIME=*:2000:2359,*:0000:0700


But get following error:

00012136 2006-03-23 16:32:35 Failed 'IGNORE HOST=* SERVICE=bckp
TIME=*:2000:2359,*:0000:0700' (time criteria)


Suprisingly, when I set:

IGNORE HOST=* SERVICE=bckp TIME=*:1500:1800

It works:
00025985 2006-03-23 16:39:01 *** Match with 'IGNORE HOST=*
SERVICE=bckp
TIME=*:1500:1800' ***


Any idea?

In the alerts file the time in a round about way goes backwards. I dont have it implemented now but im fauly sure it was something like this

host=xyz.com time=*:0820:0800 which means that it alerts from 820 around till 800 again which means it skips 20 mins after 8am. Not sure if my memory is 100% correct but it does sound familiar.

I didnt know there was an ignore bit that like but if my guess is correct then just switch your times around.
