Re: {bb} Disable Question

["Russ Starr" <russ.starr@gmail.com>]

There might be a better way, but my first thought is a script to be
run via crontab.  Assuming you have your schedule setup correctly in
crontab, you could have a one liner like this: (this is run on the BB
server)

#!/bin/sh
$BBHOME/bin/bb localhost "disable yourhost.yourdomain.service 20 Nightly Reboot"

Service is conn, disk, cpu, etc.  You might be able to leave that out
to account for the whole host.  20 is the time in minutes it will be
disabled.  Everything following that is the message to show.  Replace
$BBHOME accordingly.

I'm not sure if that is what you wanted exactly.
