I am new to Nagios and have over 100 hosts that I am checking.
Everything is working fine with the hosts check except I have 1 host that will
go "down" and then next immediate check be "up".
This happens several times a day but the host appears not to have had a problem.
Any suggestions on what to check to resolve this problem as I suspect it is the
host (Windows 2003 Server) not a network level problem.
thanks

I need some clarification as to how exactly the host check determines
if a host is down. In the default configuration, the check-host-alive
command sends a single ping, which can be considered (obviously)
either ok, warning, or critical. The host then has a
max_check_attempts setting of three, which if I understand things
correctly means it will try this check twice more, in rapid
succession, before putting the host into a hard state. My question is
what is the logic if one of these three checks returns a different
state than the other two? Say, for example, the first ping never makes
it back, therefore returning a critical state, but the second and
third come back, giving OK states? is the host then considered up or
down? Thanks!
