Automatically pause notifications during certain times

Hi all,

I have a couple of SQL servers monitored via Nagios Core that get absolutely smashed during the backup windows. Is there anyway to stop notifications during the backup period? I've had a look around within the settings, and also googled the question but can't find anything that helped.

ta.

Setup a timeperiod that excluded those times and set this config directive for the service

Code: Select all

notification_period      new_timeperiod_name

Perfect, that worked, thanks.

All my googling and it was in the basic documentation. smh.
