Irene,

This is because you problably set the option "retain_status_information" in value equal to 1.
Reading the documentation we can see the following:
"This directive is used to determine whether or not status-related information about the host is retained across program restarts. This is only useful if you have enabled state retention using the retain_state_information directive. Value: 0 = disable status information retention, 1 = enable status information retention."

Try to change this value to one different from what is in your config now. Then, restart nagios processes and check this out.

I hope this resolves your problem.

You don't need to thanks the "patience"! We all are here to try to help one each other. :)
