[Xymon] DOWNTIME accross multiple days

[Claessens Jurgen]

Hi,

For the Downtime on specific dyas, you just need to replace the * from the manpage and split it
Manpage:          It says that "*:2330:0200" would be the same as "*:2330:2400,*:0000:0200".
So your downtime would mean:
“51:2300:2400,51:0000:0400”
Which might not be what you want.
I never tend to go over midnight unless the days are linked to each other and the first day I always put separate.

Best regards

Jurgen Claessens

The man page for hosts.cfg suggests that you can.  It says that the DOWNTIME processing is the same as for NKTIME, and that for NKTIME the "interval between start time and end time may cross midnight".  It says that "*:2330:0200" would be the same as "*:2330:2400,*:0000:0200".

I’m still having trouble getting my head around this, if I have this:

DOWNTIME=serbia:51:2300:0400:offline
Planned downtime: Fri/Mon:2300:0400 (status:serbia) (cause:offline)

Is this:


1.       Down from 2300 on Friday to 0400 on Monday (spanning across Friday/Sat/Sun/Mon)
Or

2.       Down on Friday/Sat from 2300 to 0400 AND mon/tues from 2300 to 0400

I might just need to test and see what happens I think.


Regards,


Brandon
