Guys,
I am using check-host-alive which is using check_ping (2.2.1) & have set the host_check_timeout=60 in nagios.cfg.
define command {
command_name check-host-alive
command_line $USER1$/check_ping -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -w 3000.0,80% -c 5000.0,100% -p 5
}
Sometimes Nagios report host as "DOWN" with message "Plugin time out" during which the server monitored is actually UP.
Any thoughts on how to resolve this?

Hello,
Try updating your check command with the -t 60 timeout option on the plugin.

Code: Select all
