Hi, is there such an option for hosts checks? Currently if a host check fails nagios tries to re-check that host imediatly until it reaches the max_check_attemps, then a notification is sent out. Is there a way to delay the host checks? (See below) I'd like to have nagios check the host, then wait 60(current interval) then attempt the next check...This works for services,but not in the hosts.cfg......make sense???? <IMG alt="Host Notification" src="http://ncc.cmg.fcnbd.com/nagios/images/notify.gif" align=left>[11-29-2002 11:04:01] HOST NOTIFICATION: nagios;indytunrtrb;DOWN;host-notify-by-email;CRITICAL - Plugin timed out after 10 seconds <IMG alt="Host Notification" src="http://ncc.cmg.fcnbd.com/nagios/images/notify.gif" align=left>[11-29-2002 11:03:55] HOST NOTIFICATION: nagios;indytunrtrb;DOWN;host-notify-by-sms-pager;CRITICAL - Plugin timed out after 10 seconds <IMG alt="Host Down" src="http://ncc.cmg.fcnbd.com/nagios/images/critical.png" align=left>[11-29-2002 11:03:55] HOST ALERT: indytunrtrb;DOWN;HARD;3;CRITICAL - Plugin timed out after 10 seconds <IMG alt="Host Down" src="http://ncc.cmg.fcnbd.com/nagios/images/critical.png" align=left>[11-29-2002 11:03:45] HOST ALERT: indytunrtrb;DOWN;SOFT;2;CRITICAL - Plugin timed out after 10 seconds <IMG alt="Host Down" src="http://ncc.cmg.fcnbd.com/nagios/images/critical.png " align=left>[11-29-2002 11:03:35] HOST ALERT: indytunrtrb;DOWN;SOFT;1;CRITICAL - Plugin timed out after 10 seconds <hr size=1>Do you Yahoo!? <a href="http://rd.yahoo.com/mail/mailsig/*http://mailplus.yahoo.com">Yahoo!
