How can you set service check execution time? (aside from passive cron)

Should be able to create another timzperiod config in the
timeperiods.cfg I would imagine and in the service definition use the

check_period                    <timeperiod>

Could have additional timeperiod definition for a certain time each day
which would execcute the service checks JUST between those times.


Think I am on the right track with that.
