Hi,

I have wrote a plugin and it works fine, now i want to run this only once in a day at 1AM

What setting to i change to achieve this.

Thanks,
Srikanth

You could create a custom timeperiod for that service check, and assign it as the check period for that service and it's interval, that would probably be the easiest way. This would be done in the CCM.

can you please provide the steps to do it.

Thanks,

You will need to create the time period to your specs in CCM > Time Periods > Add New. Then save that time period, and simply apply it to the Check Period portion of one of your services.

Don't go through the hell I just went through the other day, here is what you have to do

1.) Create a new time period and set it for 01:00-01:00 for every day
2.) Set that as the check_period for the service
3.) Set the check_interval to 1 for the service

It will schedule it then once per day withing a minute of 01:00

It worked, Thank you for your help.
