Attempting to prevent “false” cpu alarms during overnight processing, I have included a line in analysis.cfg thus:

     LOAD 4.0 6.0 HOST=blueteam EXTIME=W:2200:0400

However, alarms continue to be generated during the “excluded” hours.

Has anyone else had any difficulty with either TIME or EXTIME entries?

Thanks!

I always use the DOWNTIME tag in hosts.cfg which not only disables alerts, but ”blues out” the page giving you a nice marker in the event log report.  I have both styles is use eg :-


"DOWNTIME=*:*:2345:0105:Backup Window" \
"DOWNTIME=files,http,msgs:*:0030:0600:Application Optimisation" \
