These are a variety of monitored entities including windows machines and web sites.
How would that work as you describe? Do I just substitute the days, "yourhobbitserver" with the name or localhost, "yourhobbitclient" with the hostname of the client to disable, "60" with number of minutes to disable it, and then the "Scheduled reboot" would be the cause?
And this cron job would run on the Hobbit server right?
Thanks , Jason

I am just looking for what you think is the best way to exclude a few clients from reporting problems during regular 3-time a week maintenance periods where these are naturally going to be off or not reporting.
How would I set that in the best way?
Set up a cron job to disable them at those times.
