AW: Notification periods question

[Daniel Bimschas]

first, thank you for your answer, greg.

but unfortunately i've come so far too. the problem now is
that nagios reschedules the notifications that occur during
non-notification hours for the specific contact. it then
sends the notifications when the timeperiod is valid for this
contact.

with this i will always get notified about all problems that 
occured at night, in the night AND in the morning.

my notifications will also be sent out via SMS, so it would
be really stressy to get so many notifications.


you also have an idea regarding this?

thanks

Here's one way to do it:

Notifications during work hours:
define contact{
contact_name fredworkhours
alias Notifications to Fred during work hours
host_notification_period something
service_notification_period workhours
host_notification_options n
service_notification_options w,u,c,r
email fred at someserver
}

Notifications during non-work hours:
define contact{
contact_name frednonworkhours
alias Notifications to Fred outside of work hours
host_notification_period something
service_notification_period nonworkhours
host_notification_options n
service_notification_options w,u
email fred at someserver
}

> thanks for your replies

Such a spoon-fed reply is given because I am feeling out of touch with 
my server atm :)
