If I had to guess, I think at some point the servers date was set forward and during that time these hosts performed checks.

Then when scheduling checks nagios saw the last check time was greater than the time when it needed to perform the check so it kept skipping it.

Ya that could be. Two of them are server room cooling units and the third one is a camera. I have seen this happen several months ago but it fixed it self. Thanks for the help.
