Multiple schedules for DOWNTIME not displaying in info
I've got a server for which I want 2 different DOWNTIME schedules...one for "cpu" and one for "procs".
The example on the hosts.cfg man page (http://www.xymon.com/xymon/help/manpages/man5/hosts.cfg.5.html) indicates that the proper syntax for DOWNTIME is:
DOWNTIME=columns:day:starttime:endtime:cause[,columns:day:starttime:endtime:cause]
Following that example, I've set it up like so:
<ip address> <hostname> # OS:aix disk,files,cpu,memory,msgs,ports,procs NOCOLUMNS:inode DOWNTIME=procs:*:2159:0030:"Nightly dwmain and dwstage database backups",cpu:*:0000:2359:"CPU Utilization due to daily jobs"
But when I go to the info page, I see:
Planned downtime: All days:2159:0030 (status:procs) (cause:Nightly dwmain and dwstage database backups)
and at the bottom:
Other tags: OS:aix disk,files,cpu,memory,msgs,ports,procs NOCOLUMNS:inode ,cpu:*:0000:2359:CPU Utilization due to daily jobs
Should I not see both parts of the DOWNTIME line in the "Planned downtime" area on the client's info page? I've noticed this behavior in both 4.3.15 and 4.3.16 (I'm only trying to add this multi-schedule for the first time, today).

Hi Mike,
I had this problem too. It seems, if you only have one scheduled downtime then spaces are no problem but if you have more than one ... well it helps replacing the spaces with underscores '_'. At least it worked for me and all scheduled downtimes now show up on top of the info page.

Thanks, Torsten.
Did the schedules work, though, with the spaces in place (i.e. was it just an issue with the aesthetics) or did putting the the underscores ("_") in cause the schedule to properly function, too?
