Use an Action node to execute a shell script and check the time before
sending the e-mail.  It doesn't matter if the rule fires as long as the
e-mail is not sent.  For example, if you do maintenance between two and
three in the AM:  

    Hour=`date +%H` # hour as 00-24
    if [ ${Hour} -eq 2 ]
       then exit
       else echo "Message" | mail Catalina.Martinez AT work DOT com 
       fi

Subject: [NV-L] ruleset

Hello,

 

How do I set up a ruleset not to run between a certain time (during in a
backups).

 

I have a ruleset that will forward an email when servmon detects a
service goes down. Between midnight-4am, we have backup running and of
course most of the services are shutdown.. I don't want to get emails
during that time.

 

Thanks

Catalina
