Check_freshness does not obey Freshness_threshold

[Andre Bergei]

Hi group.

 I have a distributed enviroment with check_freshness defined on my
central, but services are marked stale before
Mye threshold setting has expired.

As you see from my nagios.log under, my threshold is 600 seconds, but my
central does the check even if the service is stale by just 1 second.

	Log example
"
[1070033901] Warning: The results of service 'sysuptime' on host
'hostnamehere' are stale by 70 seconds (threshold=600 seconds).  I'm
forcing an immediate check of the service.
"
 thus the central does an active check of the service before the
threshold setting says it's okay to do so.
 Anyone seen this problem before?  


	Nagios compile switches;
./configure  --prefix=/opt/nagios --datadir=/var/data/nagios/share
--with-nagios-user=nagios --with-nagios-grp=nagios --with-mysql-status
--with-nagios-grp=nagios --with-mysql-status --with-mysql-lib=/usr/lib
* note Mysql status support compiled in only for status data.

	My services template on the central
define service{
        ; The 'name' of this service template, referenced in other
service definitions

        register                        0
        }


	the nagios.cfg got these values defined for freshness
# check the "freshness" of service results.  Enabling this option
# Values: 1 = enabled freshness checking, 0 = disable freshness checking
check_service_freshness=1
# check the "freshness" of service check results.  If you have
# disabled service freshness checking, this option has no effect.
freshness_check_interval=300
