How to prevent handler from running on scheduled downtimes?

Post by aregis1973 »

Hi,

We have setup a Host (Windows 2008 Server) with a service (IIS) that has an event handler that starts the service when its down. We then schedule a downtime for maintenance. However, the event handler still starts the service despite the scheduled downtime.

Is there a way to accomplish this in nagios?

Thanks.

did you schedule downtime for the host or service?

If the service was in downtime it shouldn't even be running the check, and hence would not no the service was in a warning or critical state...
