Host and service time periods

Post by disarm76 »

Hi, if I set a timeperiod to a host does it affect its services? Or do I have to set the timeperiod to every service? If so, is there a way automate it without having to manually set it to every service? Thank you.

Notification timeperiods will be inherited by a service if they are not explicitly set:

However I am not 100% certain about the behavior for check periods. In any case, you could also use a template to set this for the services.
