Hello,
I unchedked "Resend Notifications" for some of our passive services,
then caused a passive service not to get results for one of our hosts.
After 4 hours, we didn't see an unknown status or get an alert for that
service (which is what we are looking for).
What am I missing about service freshness here?
Thanks for your help,
Ivan.
