Check your interval_length in nagios.cfg. That determines how long a single unit it. If "30" gives you 30 minutes, then it's probably set to 60 (60 seconds/1 minute). Sticking an "s" on your retry interval isn't going to change anything; it'll just be ignored. You'll need to adjust your interval if you want things to happen in under 1 time unit (in the default case, 60 seconds). ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
