Hi Grace,
Try to increase max_check_attemps. Let nagios accept a host is in
DOWN status after at least 5 checks.

If it is important for you to be aware of a DOWN status of a host in max. 2
minutes, then make nagios check intervals base on seconds (instead of
minutes). Then make max_check_attemps to be 6 but totally taking 2 minutes
with a delay of 20 seconds each.

Sorry for my English.
