My check_ping command is as follows:
define command{ command_name check_ping command_line $USER1$/check_ping -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -w $ARG1$ -c $ARG2$ -p $ARG3$ } The above is also the structure of my check-host-alive in checkcommands.c fg same goes for the check-host-alive command which is what I have in the hosts.cfg file --> check_commmand check-host-alive. For my actual check_ping command in services.cfg I have the following: check_command check_ping!100.0,10%!500.0,40%!5 So, is passing that last argument '5' to $ARG3$ a problem? I did that with my first host and did not have a problem.
