Hi Henrik

Thanks for the reply.
Unfortunately, it wasn't quite was I was hoping for. :-)

Can I add this to the features wish-list?

Regards

 Hobbit has a beautiful facility to calculate uptime stats.
But PHBs, being what they are, want more.
Is there a way to flag an outage as "scheduled" or similar, and not include it in the uptime stats calculation?
There is, but you have to do it in advance: By disabling the host or
status that is planned to be down.
It would be good to be able to flag the scheduled outage as "not a real outage" after the fact, because during the outage, we use Hobbit to keep tabs on what goes down and comes up and when.
I know, I've had the same request from my own users.
