If memory serves, when I was configuring DOWNTIME I found that if you specify the optional reason you must also specify the optional service. Could be mistaken, of course...this is what works for me:
DOWNTIME=*:6:0125:0225:"reason goes here"
Cheers.

Neither of these two complained:
DOWNTIME=0:0000:2359:OffSunday,6:0830:2359:OffSaturday
DOWNTIME=0:0000:2359:OffSunday,1:1930:0730:nightlyoff,2:1930:0730:nightlyoff,3:1930:0730:nightlyoff,4:1930:0730:nightlyoff,5:1930:0730:nightlyoff,6:0830:2359:OffSaturday
However that second one didn't disable the host, should it be as it is obviously within that time frame?
Does anyone have a working example by chance?
Thanks for the suggestion, Allan!

The only thing I can think is the * overides/conflicts with the individual day entries and it doesnt like this ?
What if you leave it with just the Saturday and Sunday Entries ?

Info page says:
All days:1930:0730:nightlyoff, Sat:0830:2359:OffSaturday, Sun:0000:2359:OffSunday
But hobbitd is complaining:
Latest errormessages:
Bad timespec (missing colon or wrong weekdays): 1930:0730:nightlyoff
Is there something wrong with the *?

6:0000:2359:OffSunday <--that is my only question before I try it
- shouldn't it be 6 for Sunday and 5 for Saturday?

LMJ,
Excellent! That answers half my question - but now I need to
disable it all
day on the weekends; can you have two time frames in one
downtime statement?

I have a device that shuts down at 7:30pm and comes back
up at 7:30am. What
is the best way to disable this host every single night?
I would like it to be marked as disabled during this
time, but I definitely
do not want the bb.html, bb2.html and bb.wml showing up
red - red is bad! I
also need it to stop sending email alerts.
Would DOWNTIME= be what am I looking for? If so can
someone explain how the
day:starttime:endtime:cause[,day:starttime:endtime:cause] gets
filled it?
I need it to be every weekday in the evenings and nights
as well as every weekend.
I had almost the same issue : do not display databases
connection errors during the night backup, here we
go :
ip.ip.ip.ip name # conn foo bar NAME:"Nice Name"
DOWNTIME=*:1930:0730:MyReason
That's it ;)
Test this :
DOWNTIME=*:1930:0730:MyReason,5:0000:2359:OffSaturday,5:0000:2359:OffSunday
What do you think about this one ? ;)
