check_period help?

[Andrew Noonan]

Hi all,

I've got a service that I'm trying to monitor with different
thresholds at different times of day.  To do this, I created two
timeperiods, covering 1:00am to 7:00am, and 7:00am to 1:00am (I
think), two service templates that each use these periods, and two
services that do the same check with differing thresholds, each
inheriting the different service template.  But when I look at the
scheduling for these two services, it's almost opposite what I think
it should be.  The 'late' service is next scheduled at 00:00 and the
'normal' service is scheduled at 1:00am.  I'm running 3.0.6.  The
other templates used do not change the check_period, except for the
generic-service template.  Here are the definitions:
