Periodic downtime of a server

[Klaus Umbach]

Hi,

How to I configure a periodic downtime of a server?

My scenario:

7 groups of servers, each group gets rebooted on a specific weekday at 4am.
(windows-servers, they reboot them before they crash!)

If I change the check_period of the host to a timeperiod that
excepts 3:30 - 4:30 I still get the notifications for all the services on
the host, because nagios does not know, the host is down.

If I change the notification_period of the host, Nagios stops checking the
services when the host is down, but as some of them take a while to boot, I get
the notifications after the host is up again but not yet completelly up.

Can I somehow do a periodic scheduled downtime without using cron?

Cheers
	Klaus
