is_volatile

Hi there,

at the moment I'm migrating from nagios Nagios-2.3 to Nagios-3.0.6 with 
nearly the same config Files.

One parameter makes me headaches: "is_volatile".

In V2.3 it doesn't shows me this parameter in the webinterface and 
notification (SMS and Email) messages. But in V3.0.6 does.

EXAMPLE from the Webinterface:
V2.3
Free Space C:\	OK

V3.0.6
Free Space C: is_volatile 0	OK

In V3.0.6 it only shows me this output from services when I check the 
DriveSizes from Windows-Server with check_nrpe.

Here is one Service Check from V3.0.6 and V2.6
....
# Service definition
define service{
         use                             windows-service

         host_name                       <HOSTNAME>
         service_description             Free Space C:\
         is_volatile                     0
         check_period                    24x7
         max_check_attempts              3
         normal_check_interval           3
         retry_check_interval            1
         contact_groups                  sys-admins
         notification_interval           0
         notification_period             24x7
         notification_options            w,u,c,r
         check_command 
check_win_nrpe2!CheckDriveSize!ShowAll=long MinWarnFree=30% 
MinCritFree=20% Drive=C:!
....

Memory Checks looks like this.
....
# Service definition
define service{
         use                             windows-service

         host_name                       <HOSTNAME>
         service_description             MEMORY
         is_volatile                     0
         check_period                    24x7
         max_check_attempts              3
         normal_check_interval           3
         retry_check_interval            1
         contact_groups                  nosms-admins
         notification_interval           0
         notification_period             24x7
         notification_options            w,u,c,r
         check_command 
check_win_nrpe2!checkMem!ShowAll=long MaxWarn=96% MaxCrit=99% 
type=physical type=page!
         }
....


My first idea was to delete the line "is_volatile 0"
But a nagios -v nagios.cfg gives me this Warning.
....
Warning: Service 'Free Space C:        check_period 
24x7' on host '<HOSTNAME>' has no check time period defined!
....

any hints are welcome to hide this 'is_volatile' output.

thanks in advance
Richard
