The virtual machine was using a nat connection i changed then in a bridge one and i get tha same error -> some host were marked as down.

but (good news) maybe i fixed it:
instead of using

Code: Select all

check_command		check-host-alive
i tryed

Code: Select all

check_command		check-fast-alive
and it works.

Now i'm wondering, is possible that the chec-host-alive which uses the normal ping command do not tollerate redirection?
Using check-fast-alive is a good way to check the status(up or down) of an host?

It should work just fine.
