Thank you for the reply. Could I ask you a further question?
In the manual the orphaned services are defined as "This option allows you to enable or disable checks for orphaned service checks. Orphaned service checks are checks which ahve been executed and have been removed from the event queue, but have not had any results reported in a long time. Since no results have come back in for the service, it is not rescheduled in the event queue. This can cause service checks to stop being executed. Normally it is very rare for this to happen - it might happen if an external user or process killed off the process that was being used to execute a service check. " To be more specific, is this a kind of status that in the memory , nagios is acknowledging that this service is still checking but actually the plugin did not return anything although the process is already dead? Thank you for reading.
