Unless I'm mistaken, we had this timeperiod problem occur here. Some alerts were sent during a timeperiod for which notifications are not enabled. I did restart Nagios after DST went into affect just for fun, but that was before these alerts went out. I know that the fix for this when this bug was evidenced last fall was to run a script against one of the .dat files (retention.dat?). However, that was for the monitoring problem. Is there something similar that we need to do to correct timeperiods?
