It seems that retry interval in my configuration for host checks is not working. I'm using Nagios3rc2.
Here is definition of host: define host{ host_name malm.proxy.xxx.xxx alias malm address 195.xxx.xxx.xxx hostgroups PROXY check_command check_host_alive max_check_attempts 3 check_interval 5 retry_interval 5 check_period 24x7 process_perf_data 1 contact_groups admins, duty notification_interval 10 notification_period 24x7 notification_options d,u,r } But when i disable icmp on that hosts, so host is unreachable via icmp, in log file is this: [1204015545] HOST ALERT: malm.proxy.verza.net;DOWN;SOFT;1;PING CRITICAL - Packet loss = 100% [1204015565] HOST ALERT: malm.proxy.verza.net;DOWN;SOFT;2;PING CRITICAL - Packet loss = 100% [1204015615] HOST ALERT: malm.proxy.verza.net;DOWN;HARD;3;PING CRITICAL - Packet loss = 100% So delay between first and 2nd check is 20 secs and between 2nd and 3rd is 50secs, but i expected it to be 5 minutes in both cases since retry_interval is setup to 5 (and interval length is 60). There are defined about 5 services on that host. But i think that service checks should be suppressed until host it up again. Is this some bug or i have some missconfiguration there ?
