Re: [Nagios-users] Exclude Notifications during certian hours
There may be a better way to do this, but I believe this will work.
Define a new timeperiod like so:
define timeperiod{
timeperiod_nameexclude_nights
alias No notifications 00:30-6:30
sunday 00:00-00:29,06:31-24:00
monday 00:00-00:29,06:31-24:00
tuesday00:00-00:29,06:31-24:00
wednesday 00:00-00:29,06:31-24:00
thursday 00:00-00:29,06:31-24:00
friday 00:00-00:29,06:31-24:00
saturday 00:00-00:29,06:31-24:00
}
Then in the appropriate host definitions add 'check_period exclude_nights'.

Hi all,
I have all my servers (approx. 70) monitored by PING using the 24x7 time
period and notifications set to 24x7.
Im happy with this as I want to know when my servers go down at all
times as a lot are critical and under strict SLA’s.
However I have the need to exclude notifications for 1 physical host and
6 virtual hosts that sit on this physical host during the hours of
00:30-06:30 every night.
These machines are not under any SLA and often reboot during the night
for various reasons and I’m done with waking up at all hours for these
non-critical servers!
What is the quickest way for me to exclude these 7 hosts from notifying
during these hours whilst leaving all other servers at 24x7?
Ive had a read the nagios docs but it didn’t really help me as I didn’t
really understand it.
I have edited my server.cfg to show the scenario I want to achieve and
that can be found at the link below.
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/895609/servers.cfg
The layout etc is identical to my live configs, I have just edited the
number of hosts/names/contacts etc (the 3 hosts named NOT CRITICAL are
the example for the “7 hosts” I first talked about)
What is the quickest and most effective way for me to keep checking ALL
my servers 24x7 and notifying 24x7, BUT exclude 7 particular servers
from checks/notifications between 00:30-06:30 every night?
Thanks in advance for your help.

Re: [Nagios-users] Exclude Notifications during certian hours
1) Create a time period that excludes the hours you do not want to be monitoring those hosts. 2) assign those hosts to a host group 3) assign a ping test with the modified timeperiod to those hosts .
