Nagios Support Forum

Hi!

I've just committed into SVN trunk 4 new downtime deletion commands:
* DEL_HOSTGROUP_HOST_DOWNTIME;hostgroupname
* DEL_HOSTGROUP_SVC_DOWNTIME;hostgroupname
* DEL_HOST_SVC_DOWNTIME;hostname
* DEL_DOWNTIME_BY_START_TIME_COMMAND;starttime;comment

This allows downtime deletions to work in a master/slave setup, because =
the current mechanism of deletion by id number doesn't work in a =
distributed environment.

The first three have been in Opsview for years, but the last one is new, =
so we're adding all these into Nagios core today.

There are tests written to process the external command (in =
test_commands.c) and the downtime deletion (in test_downtime.c - which =
caught two bugs!).

A few questions for Ethan:
* I assume svn trunk is the right place to put this - I note that in =
branches/ there a feature branches. Can I suggest that you use trunk for =
latest development and create a stable branch instead. This is what we =
do for Opsview and it works very well (we tried the other way of =
development branches but caused a lot of unnecessary maintenance)
* Where is the documentation to go for new external commands? Google =
says here: =
http://old.nagios.org/developerinfo/ext ... ndlist.php but =
it is broken, and the domain is old.nagios.org
