Hello,

What that means is it took too long to get a response back from the remote host. The global timeout is set for 60 seconds, but this may or may not be the default timeout for a check command.

If the timeouts are happening intermittently, then its usually a network congestion issue. You can run a state history report on the host or service and review the behavior to try and figure the cause.
