Recurring downtime bug!

Ok, server1, server2 and server3 all have a recurring downtime setup on them. Its the three that say "scheduled reboot..."

All services is selected, but there is an issue with that! After creating this schedule, I added a new service to those hosts and that one isn't included, because XI, from what I can see, creates a config file based on the services that were on it at that time. I think a code fix is in order here to save in a config file if services were selected also and if so, re-write that config file each time it needs to do the downtime.

Yeah, if it's already scheduled them it won't get added, it will add the new services on the next time it schedules, I've added it as a feature request though since I agree that it should poll at time of:

Code: Select all

NEW TASK ID 9896 created - Nagios XI Feature Request: Recurring Downtime - New services added to host do not get added to already scheduled downtime

What? really? My new services were added weeks ago and they keep alerting for the outage.

Hmm, what version of XI are you running? I tested on 5.3.1 and it worked properly, let me double-check, brb.

Yep, still working for me with your settings (every Saturday) but I'm just manually changing the date and then forcing the cron job to run.

Disregard, user was, hmm, politically correct term, umm, not explaining very well :)

But the feature request you opened is still needed
