Hi @martinkuriax,

I'm pretty certain that you are just missing the max check attempts field for that host (it's required). Please search for host in the Core Config Manager, and click on the Check Settings tab and enter a value, save and apply the configuration changes.

If that does not work, run through the following steps in Configure > CCM > Tools > Config File Management

1. Delete Files
2. Write Files
3. Verify Files ( if you see any errors follow the message to correct and repeat steps 1-3 until it passes)
4. Restart Nagios Core

Lastly, if the issue persists, send over the system profile and we'll check the configs. Thanks, Benjamin
