On-Call Rotation

You know, the only improvement I could see with this aspect is the
ability to over-ride the on-call rotation through the front end. This
would be helpful for other departments and their on-call rotation
exception. (example: Joe Smith is suppose to be on call be had to leave
town all of a sudden. John Jinglehammer is taking his on-call
rotation.) Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Robert

After reading your post and thinking about it, I decided to backup and
then upgrade to the latest release which is 3.0rc1. (I was on 3.0b4.)
I read the release notes and didn't see anything except where they added
the "exclude" option in version 3.0b1 but I was already on a version
after that. After the upgrade, the new directives seem to be working.
At least when I verify the cfg files, no errors come up.
Thanks for your help.
Robert

Yes, I am using 3 and it could very well be a bug.
If I am reading the documentation correctly, specifically starting on
page 231 of the Nagios 3 doc, with this setup, it will rotate every 14
days or 21 days or what every you set. Say I am on call this week on
Monday, 14 days later it will start again.
Anyway, how would I report this as a bug or is there a syntax error I am
missing?
Thanks
Robert

This pretty useful, I didn't know once could do this and would like to.
However, I run nagios 2 and it appears this is only available on nagios
3, are you using nagios 3?
If so, maybe it's a bug in this new feature? Also, this looks like it
would only do Dec 24, 25, then Jan 7,8, then Jan 14,15 (what you want?)
but I may be misreading the documentation.
