I'm migrating a lot of checks from core into XI and I'm just wondering why does "Pending" checks show up on the Service Problems page?

Hello, @jenstar13. Interesting, I checked and this report doesn't show pending checks on my XI. Could you take a screenshot of the whole report page and upload it to this thread?

Ok, here it is, I had to white out some info
but here are two in red that were in a pending state with a real error

Well, technically they are not in a pending state, but in critical state. How did you migrate these services from Core to XI? Did you follow the steps, outlined in the document below?

The timestamps on these two services are 0 (epoc time)... What kind of check are these - active or passive? Can you show us the configuration files for these services?

Have you tried forcing an immediate check from the GUI? Do the state and timestamps change?

I moved them by hand, with the bulk add tool copying an existing machine, and i didn't force an immediate check because i was still adding more, it was my colleges that noticed the operation screen. All the checks were active and went away on first scheduled run. I was just wondering why pending showed up as critical on the operation screen

I was just wondering why pending showed up as critical on the operation screen

It is hard to say after the fact. It is possible that these services had "initial_state" directive set to "c" (CRITICAL). The pending state should not show up as critical in the Operations Screen... There is nothing in the component's code that even mentions pending state as "pending" state is not one of the "non-ok" states.

ok thank you, you can close this out then
