Host and services have historically been separate entities for the  
most part with no inheritance between them at all. With nagios-3,  
there is some inheritance happening now between a service and it's  
host but only for three variables (contact_groups,  
notification_interval and notification_period: http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/3_0/objectinheritance.html#implied_inheritance) 
. check_period isn't an inheritable property and the most direct way  
to a solution is to simply specify the same check_period name for the  
services that you are using for the host.
