<div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">I think its a good idea, so I'll add these macros to Nagios 3 CVS shortly: HOSTDOWNTIMEAUTHOR HOSTDOWNTIMEAUTHORNAME HOSTDOWNTIMEAUTHORALIAS HOSTDOWNTIMECOMMENT SERVICEDOWNTIMEAUTHOR SERVICEDOWNTIMEAUTHORNAME SERVICEDOWNTIMEAUTHORALIAS SERVICEDOWNTIMECOMMENT These macros will only be available during notifications for: downtime start, downtime end, and downtime cancellation.</blockquote><div> Is it also possible to add something like "HOSTDOWNTIMEDURATION" and "SERVICEDOWNTIMEDURATION" ? (I guess only available with a DOWNTIMESTART notification). When I send a downtime notification to all the admins, it would be nice to tell them who did the downtime, for what reason (comment) and for how long. </div> PS: if you add this in "Nagios CVS" now, does this mean these macros will be available in Nagios 3.1 (or 3.0) ? Thanks </div>-- L.B.
