little question about disable notification and schedule downtime

[Onotsky, Steve x55328]

Correct.  The former will cause notifications to remain disabled until told otherwise; the latter only for as long as specified.  You should read up on the difference between Fixed and Flexible scheduled downtime while you're at it.

If you want service/host checks disabled, you need to select that option from the web GUI (or drop that command into nagios.cmd).

Cheers

Subject: [Nagios-users] little question about disable notification and schedule downtime

Hi all

Reading for the first time the docs it seems that these 2 options do the same thing. Is it ?

Is the only difference that the first one disable the notification forever, while the other only in a particular timeperiod ?

Both do not stop the service checks.
