service notifications vs host notifications

[lonray]

Hello,
I've created a hostgroup with 4 members and configured nagios to monitor HTTP on these members and send notifications if HTTP goes down. Now, I want to receive notifications only during non-workhours for only one of the hosts. My timeperiods.cfg file is all set up, and I've tried changing the notification_period in the hosts.cfg file to nonworkhours for the single host, but it doesn't seem to matter. I still receive notifications on HTTP 24x7. If I change the notification_period in services.cfg to nonworkhours, it works... but for all 4 servers. Can I differentiate the one host from the others without creating 2 separate service definitions for each service I want to monitor?

Thanks!

Check the service definition to see what the notification time is, or if it's using a template that has the 24x7 timeperiod. If it does it would override your work hours timeperiod.

That worked. Thanks!
