Ok, I don't understand that, but I think i can trust you with that :)

Yes, I know, that you can configure the normal host check interval. But
I meant the initial
Checks... In our case we got some WAN Sites, which are connected with
one primary and one shadow line.
When the primary goes down it sometimes takes about 2minutes or so until
the shadow comes up, but we don't care, and don't wanne get a
notification for those 2-3minutes downtime. We also tried to insert a
sleep timer in the check command, but this really messes up our system
performance regarding the load...
Regarding the services in this site, ist no Problem, because the
interval between the service checks in configured in the right way.
Maybe there is another option to slow down the host checks without
getting Problems with the load... But I can't think about any...

Philipp
