Hi,

I sometimes get alerts on my central nagios server to say passive checks
are stale, only to get another alert after a couple of seconds to say
the passive results have come in.

I was wondering how the automagically calculated freshness_threshold value is calculated. The docs* say :

    Nagios will automatically calculate a "freshness" threshold by looking
    at either the normal_check_interval or retry_check_interval options

If I set the remote servers to perform/submit a check every 60 seconds
and the central server is expecting it every 60 seconds then sometimes I
suspect the check will be a few seconds late. Is there a 'grace period'
thrown in on top of the normal_check_interval to allow for this?

thanks,

Mike
