Scheduled Downtime

[*]Is there a way to limit the duration of a scheduled downtime to no more than 60 days? (60 is an example) This would prevent users from circumventing monitoring practices/policies.
[*]Is there a way to "multi-select" hosts via search or adhoc query (without needing a host group every time) to then apply Scheduled Downtime to? We have 7000+ hosts spread geographically with 100+ operational personnel working in the Nagios front end and having them select 1 host at a time to schedule DT is inefficient.
[*]How far out before we can select hosts and services together when scheduling DT?

Don't get me wrong, I am loving XI but I'm missing a few features from Ninja that I took for granted.

  • When scheduling downtime, you can set it for a fixed downtime, but there is not a way currently to cap that at a given value.
  • Also not currently implemented, can add as a feature request.
  • The closest we have at the moment is the ability to schedule downtime for all the services on a given host. I can add this to the feature request as well.
While we're here, anything else related to scheduled downtime you would like to see?

No I think that covers DT.

BanditBBS, I will certainly check that out, thanks!

jpelley, do you want us to keep this thread open for a while or it is safe to lock it?
