Do you want to stop them forever, or just stop them for a short period of time? If you just want to stop them temporarily, there is a button on the service information screen.

I want to stop them temporily (for example only 200 services, total list 2-3 k). We must update our monitoring scriptes for this services and i can't completly stop nagios. How i can do this from CLI or with some scripte ? I know about service information screen but it's not convenient for us. Tnk's

You could deactivate them, do your changes and reactivate them when you are done. Would this work for you?
To deactivate, go to Configure > Core Config Manager > Services, select the services you want to deactivate, on the bottom of the screen is a pull down menu called With Checked, select Deactivate and click the Go button.
Apply the configuration and those services will not be checked.
Try that out and let us know if it works for you.

Without knowing why you want to do this, you could also schedule downtime for the host. This way, no notifications are performed during the downtime, and Nagios will basically ignore the state of the checks until things are back.
