You can create different time periods or delete existing time periods for monitoring hosts or services. You can, for example, monitor a host for 24 hours and enable alarms only for your service hours agreed by contract. In that case you do not receive any message outside your service hours. However, two time periods are predefined by the system. They cannot be deleted:
