Hi all,
We have a server on which we monitor certain processes, however, these processes are stopped and started every morning via a cron job. I'd like to prevent these flagging as red during this period but can't seem to find any way other than using the xymon command to put the system into maintenance for the duration of the restart. Has anyone found an alternative way of doing this?
Thanks,

Hi Neil,
take a look at the analysis.cfg. There you can add something like PROC "myproc running only a few hours a day" HOST=server TIME=W:0900:1700
That way your process will only be monitored on server on weekdays between 9 a.m. an 5 p.m.
