Is there a report that shows what the status was everytime a check was run? If a check was run every hour, and we run the report for the full day, then is should show the 24 lines on the graph for every hour. When I run it now I only see a few. Is it just a setting?

The think the closest thing we have right now is the availability report. We're currently finishing up a major revision to the reporting that should be released around the new year. However, if there's a particular reporting feature you're wanting, we love feedback on what you're looking for, so feel free to give us details on what kind of report(s) you want specifically.

I just checked on the new reporting tools, and "State History" is one of the reports that's on the way, which shows a log of each check for a host or service.

ok thanks, that would be great, will this be an update of nagiosxi or just a plugin?

It'll be for the new 2011R1 Release that comes out around the new year if I understand it correctly. Here are some of the features:

Excellent, think they will have a report to show the breakdown of all host and service check? For instance it will show all/some the fields on the Nagiosxi Host/ Service management screen. So if we wanted to have a list of every check showing notification times, intervals, check period, contacts, etc... thanks.

Not sure about all of those details, as some of what you're looking for is more configuration information, I don't think all of it will necessarily be there. However, anything that is visible in the status table will be available in the state history.
