Re: [monit] Monitor host only at day

[Martin Pala]

Hi,

this is not supported currently, but you can simply use cron to enable/ 
disable monitoring if the service when needed.

You can set the monitoring mode to manual (se the service is not  
automatically monitored) like this:

  check process foobar with pidfile /var/run/foobar.pid
    start program = "..."
    stop program = "..."
    mode manual

and cron entries:

0 8 * * * /usr/bin/monit monitor foobar
0 19 * * * /usr/bin/monit unmonitor foobar

the first entry will enable monitoring of service foobat at 8:00 every  
day
the second entry disables monitoring at 19:00
