Custom Notification Interval?

[and1100]

Hi,

Is it possible to set a custom interval? For example, we would like to set up alerting to only happen during the hours of 6:00pm-> 5:15pm on the next day. We do not care about 5:16pm->5:59pm.

I haven't been able to track down a way to do it...

Thank you.

Have you taken a look at this page?

This may be the right direction.

Hi Slansing,

This appears to be EXACTLY what I am looking for. Thank you!!

Just to confirm that I understand the functionality:


define timeperiod{

timeperiod_name nonworkours

alias Non-Work Hours

sunday 00:00-24:00 ; Every Sunday of every week

monday 17:16-17:59

tuesday 17:16-17:59

wednesday 17:16-17:59

thursday 17:16-17:59

friday 17:16-17:59

saturday 00:00-24:00 ; Every Saturday of every week

}


and I would then configure notification_period to 'nonworkhours'?

Thanks again.

That sounds backwards, I would setup the times something like this

Code: Select all

define timeperiod{

timeperiod_name workhours
alias Work Hours
monday 00:00-17:15,18:00-24:00
tuesday 00:00-17:15,18:00-24:00
wednesday 00:00-17:15,18:00-24:00
thursday 00:00-17:15,18:00-24:00
friday 00:00-17:15,18:00-24:00

}

and then configure notification_period to 'workhours'?
