Why Nagios take too time for notify for email?

[xerez]

Hi, I am doing tests with the notifications for email. These work more or less. However when I turn off a host, Nagios take too time in notify me for mail. Why? Is possible that Nagios do it more fast?

Thanks.

How long is it taking? This is all determined by your check_interval, retry_interval, and max_check_attempts for that host. And if you have a first_notification_delay that would affect it as well.

After various tests, all works well. Thanks for reply.
