Status returning to normal ?

[Carroll, Jim P [Contractor]]

I'm not exactly sure I understand what you're asking.

On the one hand you're asking for a service check to reset to OK after a
period of time (depending on how you define 'period of time, this is the
default behaviour).

On the other hand it appears you're asking that if the next check returns
and OK, to set the status back to OK, but still require that you manually
submit an OK.  (This confuses me.)

If I may speculate wildly for a moment....  If you're primarily interested
in receiving alerts based on the (critical) status of the SNMP traps, you
could set max_check_attempts=1.  Also take a look at the is_volatile
directive:

HTH.
