RE: [hobbit] downtime

Looks like your missing the day
toto 1.2.3.4 # test test1 test2 DOWNTIME=*:2300:0900:dodo

Man page says:
DOWNTIME=[columns:]day:starttime:endtime:cause[,day:starttime:endtime:ca
use] 

So you should look like this:
toto 1.2.3.4 # test test1 test2 DOWNTIME=*:*:2300:0900:dodo

Do you confirm the DOWNTIME is used in bb-hosts file (server side), and
is defined in the same line as the tests I want for this host ?
