Table 2-109: Hostgroup Commands section, Hostgroup Information view
Command link Description
Schedule downtime for all hosts in
a specific hostgroup
Schedules downtime for all hosts in a particular
hostgroup. During scheduled downtimes, Nagios
does not send notifications about hosts. When
scheduled downtimes expire, Nagios sends
notifications for hosts as normal. Scheduled
downtimes are preserved across program
shutdowns and restarts.
The following fields are required:
• Hostgroup Name
• Author (Your Name)
• Comment
• Start Time (mm/dd/yyyy hh:mm:ss)
• End Time (mm/dd/yyyy hh:mm:ss)
If you select the Fixed check box, downtime is in
effect between specified start and end times. If you
do not select the Fixed check box, Nagios treats this
as “flexible” downtime. Flexible downtime starts
when a host goes down or becomes unreachable
(sometime between specified start and end times)
and lasts for specified duration. Duration fields do
not apply to fixed downtime.
