My suggestion would be to use the 'redistribute' feature that was
added a while back on the agent, causing it to pass every status
update to the master, so you can see that the check was run recently
and the result was OK.

Then you can also set the traptimeout setting to ensure that you are
receiving traps at regular intervals, and alert if the agent stops
sending traps.

I did exactly this with Mon with a master/slave Mon setup.  (Its why I
implemented the redistribute feature)
