That is one way of doing it, means changing 2 times per year for DST.
Is there a nagios "wish list" I can send this to and maybe in a future
version this can be programmed in.
Many thanks

I don't know if there is a better way to do this but what comes to
mind first is to just create two different timeperiods and assign them
to each contact. Assume one person and the nagios server are in CST
and someone else is UTC --
define timeperiod{
name workhours-cst
timeperiod_name workhours-cst
monday 09:00-17:00
tuesday 09:00-17:00
wednesday 09:00-17:00
thursday 09:00-17:00
friday 09:00-17:00
}
define timeperiod{
name workhours-utc
timeperiod_name workhours-utc
monday 14:00-22:00
tuesday 14:00-22:00
wednesday 14:00-22:00
thursday 14:00-22:00
friday 14:00-22:00
}
You'd have to change the UTC guy 2x a year to deal with DST time
changes if you honor that in your timezone. There are much more
complex time definitions you could create that could deal with DST if
you wanted.

Depends a lot on hardware you're running it on and the types of checks
you are using. You'll hit some points where you'll probably need to
change your way of doing things (i.e. at ~10,000 active checks you
might need to start looking at moving those to passive checks), etc.
There are others on the list running instances with many 10's of
thousands of checks that might be able to offer insight into those
kinds of things. If you expect to grow large, I'd recommend starting
out with a simple distributed setup and expand as needed.
