Otherwise the fixed dates are taken (Start Date, End Date). To remove a host or service from a scheduled downtime, click on "Downtime" in the left navigation. There you can delete the wanted entry. cheers<o:p></o:p><div>On Mon, Apr 2, 2012 at 10:42 AM, Deborah Martin <<a href="mailto:Deborah.Martin@kognitio.com">Deborah.Martin@kognitio.com</a>> wrote:<o:p></o:p><div><div>Hi, <o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p>We use Nagios 3.2.0 on SLES 10 SP2 to monitor a few hundred services. <o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p>Yesterday, we put a particular service into flexible downtime from around 7am to 2pm.
