Hari,

This does not sound like you are trying to help!

I think James means by 'some of the hosts still have not done their  
pings...' that he has setup check_ping as a host_check. If that is the  
case, it can be explained fairly easy: host_checks are only carried out  
when one or more services return a non-OK status.

If he is indeed talking about ping as a service_check, something else is  
misbehaving. But, we need some more info to see what's going on. James,  
could you please post the relevant part of your configuration, so people  
can see how your checks are configured?

Regards,
Richard
