Hi Team,

Can please let know what is difference between the below mentioned status information because we get this information whenever a device/server is down.So just wanted to understand why for device/server down we are getting one status information for few devices and other status information for other devices.

Code: Select all

Host check timed out after 30.01 seconds

Code: Select all

CRITICAL - xx.xx.xx.xx: rta nan, lost 100%

One is your Nagios check timing out, and the other is the actual plugin timing out. Both are important, as not all plugins are built with a timeout, where as some are.
