I don't know what the code is actually doing, but it strikes me that
11:00-11:00 is an infinitesimally small amount of time!  Nagios isn't
designed to run checks at a precise time like this.

Personally I would configure this one as a passive check in Nagios and
get cron to run the check once a month, sending the result back to
Nagios either via nsca or directly to the command interface.
