 It seems like if you globally enable active services checks for a host
 through the Enable notifications on all services for this host
option on
 the host's page, it stores the value somewhere and it always overrides
the
 template definitions. There is no reset to default option on the page,
 only enable/disable which either turn on/off globally.
 
 Anyways, hope this helps future people who run into this.
 
 If anyone could point me to the webpage to log this bug, I'll do so
also.

Documented and configured behavior isn't a bug --

http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/2_0/xodtemplate.html, specifically
'Retention Notes'.

Marc,

Gotcha, thanks. I missed that part of the documentation when looking for
this. One question then is, once you enter into this state where
notstatus information is retained, how do you get out of it? Do you have
to disable/enable the retain_nonstatus_information directive and restart
Nagios?

Reason I'm asking is lets say you do change something like this during
runtime and Nagios starts to get it's info from the state renetion file.
How do you get it back to its default behaviour for that host/service
etc to start picking up the values from the config files?

Dimitry

You could change the parameter via the GUI as you've been doing or stop
nagios and remove the retention file if you want to just start retention
from scratch globally.
