Very weird..<br><br>The device in question went down/up for 12 minutes outside of the time frame specified by the DOWNTIME statement. After it went down hobbitd complained with the following error, minutes afterward the device did come back up. The error still stands.<br>

<p style="margin-bottom: 12pt;">Neither of these two
complained:<br>
<br>
DOWNTIME=0:0000:2359:OffSunday,6:0830:2359:OffSaturday<br>
DOWNTIME=0:0000:2359:OffSunday,1:1930:0730:nightlyoff,2:1930:0730:nightlyoff,3:1930:0730:nightlyoff,4:1930:0730:nightlyoff,5:1930:0730:nightlyoff,6:0830:2359:OffSaturday<br>
<br>
However that second one didn't disable the host, should it be as it is
obviously within that time frame?<br>
<br>
Does anyone have a working example by chance?<br>
<br>
Thanks for the suggestion, Allan!<br>

6:0000:2359:OffSunday <--that is my only question before I try
it<br>
