Is there anyway that the comments oh a host in downtime can show the comments that were put in when the downtime was scheduled instead of the canned "Host has been scheduled for scheduled downtime from x until x. Notifications will be suppressed during that time." message? That's useful information (the notifications will be suppressed) but you can already tell that by the black circle icon and the "host is in scheduled downtime" info. When we put things into downtime we typically reference a ticket number, or provide details on WHY the host is in downtime, i.e. Server reboot to correct CPU load issue or something. I think it'd be more useful to click on a host that is down and see these notes rather than just "host is in downtime" with no details. Just wondering if that's possible as a feature request.

Does using my History Tab provide the solution you are after?

Nah, the history tab shows the host comments so it's just the canned one, not the one we're looking for. Thanks though, that tab is useful for us for several other reasons.

I'll add it to my to-do list to see if it can include those comments as well.

That would be fantastic, thanks!

It is up to Troy now.

snapon_admin, is it OK to lock this topic?

Yep go ahead, I'll just hound troy until he's finished.
