guys
I know a lot of questions have been asked about this but I have not found any answers yet so I decided to drop another line.
I have had nagios 2.0 running for a year now and it's been great. One
thing that baffles me though is the availability reporting.
We had 2 production outages the other day (one scheduled and one unscheduled). The scheduled one was about of about 37 minutes.
The unscheduled one about 7-10 minutes a couple of hours later. This was after a few months of 100% uptime.
When I created an availability report over the last 7 days I got these values.
Report period : last 7 days
Report time Period: 24x7
First Assumed Service State: Service OK

Now the scheduled stuff seems about ok but the unscheduled stuff doesn't make sense.
First of all negative percentages ??
Second, how can a box be down for 49710 days 6 hours and 22 mins in a 7 day period ? The actual downtime was about 10 minutes
but I don't see that in the report at all.
I did a test after with another box. I created 2 outages.
1. Unscheduled for about 15 mins
2. scheduled for about 8 mins
The report I did after that looks much better:
OK

According to that the reporting seems fine but over a long period of time the reports seem to get funny as shown above.
I'm sorry if this has been discussed endlessly. If so could someone point me to those threads please ?
Thx
