Nagios does this already and it's documented at
http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/2_0/ ... tions.html (Service and
Host Filters) --

"The first filter for host or service notifications is a check to see if
the host or service is in a period of scheduled downtime. It it is in a
scheduled downtime, no one gets notified. If it isn't in a period of
downtime, it gets passed on to the next filter. As a side note,
notifications for services are suppressed if the host they're associated
with is in a period of scheduled downtime."

Are you really seeing notifications for services on hosts in scheduled
downtime or just thinking that you will?
