Here is my scenario:

I have a user that does not want to get alerts during business hours. However, I need to.

Currently, I have a host with the following:

service_description PING
check_command check_ping!100.0,20%!500.0,60%
max_check_attempts 1
notifications_enabled 1
check_interval 1
retry_interval 1
check_period 24x7
notification_interval 30
notification_period 24x7
notification_options u,w,c,r
contact_groups admins

Is it possible to have multiple notification_periods and multiple contact_groups?

I have created a time period that is only for after hours:

define timeperiod{
timeperiod_name nonworkhours
alias Non work hours
sunday 00:00-24:00
monday 00:00-08:00,17:00-24:00
tuesday 00:00-08:00,17:00-24:00
wednesday 00:00-08:00,17:00-24:00
thursday 00:00-08:00,17:00-24:00
friday 00:00-08:00,17:00-24:00
saturday 00:00-24:00
}

And a separate contact group.

Am I approaching this the right way? Any help would be great.
