Set up a timeperiod with your specified times. Example timeperiods.cfg

# 'workhours' timeperiod definition
define timeperiod{
        timeperiod_name workhours
        alias           "Normal" Working Hours
        monday          10:00-17:00
        tuesday         10:00-17:00
        wednesday       10:00-17:00
        thursday        10:00-17:00
	friday		10:00-17:00
        }


Now in your hosts:

define host{
        host_name               your_server
        alias                   your_server
        notification_period     workhours
        notification_options    d,r
        contact_groups          your_group
        address                 your_ip
	etc...
        }

Now you'll only get contacted about these hosts during the time you just
specified...simple.
