Thank you very much!

How can I get around monitoring a host while changing the host check to not use ping since my end node does not reply to ICMP echo. Nagios is reporting my host as down when it isn't. I need to check the host is up by other means, in this case, checking TCP port 80. I've read this link below, but aft...

You are probably right. I just checked another 3.5.1 instance and with the same (lack) of events in the log. Looks to be expected behavior.
