We have up-time requirements that must be met. A host has a scheduled
downtime for 2 hours but will only be down for 5 minutes somewhere in that =
2
hour period. This is not 2 hours of down time and our availability report
would get me fired if it said the host was down for 2 hours every day.

There must be a way to do this. If not, then it's an important feature to
consider. No?
