Scheduling queue

I'm having a problem with my scheduling queue.  About half of my scheduled 

checks are not happening.  Well, they're happening, but they take a very 

long time to start...  I tried to search the mailing list archives for any 

similar problems, but for some reason the only relevant messages it showed 

me were from the bacula-devel mailing list.  I have no idea what bacula is.



Here is a look at my current scheduling queue:

This snapshot was taking at 9:46am today.  As you can see, about half of 

the checks were scheduled to happen hours ago.  I can't seem to narrow it 

down to any specific hosts or service check types.



I have implemented a wrapper on my service checks that creates a temporary 

file when the check starts, then deletes it when it completes.  That would 

let me know if there was a problem in the checks themselves, if they were 

simply taking too long.  However, it has instead proved that the checks 

never started at all.



I let Nagios run through the night last night, and as you can see, the 

problem service checks did go through at least once.  So it does remember

them eventually, it would seem.



What could cause this?  Is there any more information I can give that would

help in debugging this?



Thanks!
