trigger - ping during specific hours

[kberrien]

I'm scanned the forum a bit, and read the manual, but I could use some help.

I've got digital signs run by PC's that power off during evening hours & weekends. I want to ping test these units to know when they lockup, or go offline for some reason. Obviously I don't want the trigger to kick in when the unit SHOULD be offline.

Presently I'm using {ping_servers_t:icmpping.max(300)}<1 to determine their up status on the network. How best to add in a condition to limit the trigger to specific hours/days. I assume the time() function will come into play.

So for example, I want to suppress the trigger any day of the week from 23:10 - 07:10 hours, and all day SAT, SUN.

Thanks

Maybe you can also use "Flexible intervals" - under items conf. page -
