Hi,

Let's make sure the cron service is running (if that's stopped it's not going to start the job).

Code: Select all

systemctl status crond
If that's running and it's still not working, please post a tail output of the cron log and PM the system profile to further troubleshoot.

Code: Select all

tail -n 25 /var/log/cron
Thanks, Benjamin

Hi,

Got the profile, thanks! I located this downtime entry in the configurations, but I'm not seeing any direct errors in the logs. There's a special log for recurring downtime, can you upload or PM that as well.

Code: Select all

/usr/local/nagiosxi/var/recurringdowntime.log
Let's also verify the permissions on the configuration file.

Code: Select all

 ls -l /usr/local/nagios/etc/recurringdowntime.cfg

Hi,

Thanks for that log, it looks like the downtime isn't being scheduled since it's not set to run in December.

Code: Select all


	months_of_year		,jan,feb,mar,apr
	svcalso			1
	schedule_type		hostgroup
	hostgroup_name		xxxxs_Brxxxxx_Server
Try editing the settings for this downtime operating adding the other months and let me know if it starts scheduling after that. To adjust the settings go to Home > Incident Management > Recurring Downtime
