Hi, I have several service checks via snmp which are checked only every hour. This service checks return unknown if the host is down and nagios doesn't know this yet. If the host goes up the service state is still unknown in hard state and only one time checked instead of the max_check_attempts of 3. The problem is, it takes about one hour to the next service check or I have to reschedule the next check if I don't want to remain the service in unknown state.
Is this the right behavior for unknown states? Why aren't unknown states treated as critical states? The recovery of unknown state takes too long. Thank you!
