Changing Notification Periods

[OMeara, Randy]

Why not just enter the odd scheduled downtimes with the Nagios Scheduled
Downtime CGI interface using:

For a host:
http://<your-nagios-server>/nagios/cgi-bin/cmd.cgi?cmd_typ=55&host=<DB-serve
r>

For a service:
http://<your-nagios-server>/nagios/cgi-bin/cmd.cgi?cmd_typ=56&host=<DB-host>
&service=<DB-service>

If you have *many* hosts/services to schedule, you could script it to write
to the Nagios cmd pipe.

Regards,

Randy

All,

How do you handle hosts that the weekly scheduled downtime keeps changing.
For example, I have a system call it Homer that normal goes down for
database backup etc. On Sunday morning at 3 am to 4 am.  But about twice a
month or so they want to change the time to something else (say 4 am to 5
am).  How do you handle this.  I currently as a admin go in and hand edit
the cfg file. It's no big deal for one server but do it for 50, agh...  Is
the a way to allow a "special trusted user" to change this time through the
nagios interface?

Thanks,

Dan
