>From the help for check_load (which I'm assuming you're using in the command definition): Usage:check_load [-r] -w WLOAD1,WLOAD5,WLOAD15 -c CLOAD1,CLOAD5,CLOAD15 So, in your service definition, you're telling check_load that you want to trigger a critical condition if the 15 minute average is 4.0. Yours is 4.06. So, yes, it's critical. :) WLOAD1 = 1 minute average warning threshold WLOAD5 = 5 minute average warning threshold WLOAD15 = 15 minute average warning threshold CLOAD1 = 1 minute average critical threshold CLOAD5 = 5 minute average critical threshold CLOAD15 = 15 minute average critical threshold If you want your 15 minute average to *not* trigger a critical, you need to adjust that last value (4.0) to something higher.
