We started running with fast startup recently as well and noticed this
behaviour with reverse sorting also (rc1). Glad to hear it is not only
us seeing this :-)
Another thing we have noticed with fast startup is that the nagios
service stop processing entirely when the first service starts flapping
(we have had to disable flapping detection for now).
And a third thing while I'm remembering: Setting up notifications (also
recently) we had to use the "standard" pager variable for cell phone
number, nagios SIGSEGV'ed when using a custom contact variable
(addressx) for the purpose.
Lastly, we entered into some strange template land by following the
advice in
http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/3_0/oncallrotation.html
Which suggests that one timeperiod can _use_ another (bob-on-call
definition). I don't believe this is true (any more?), this section of
the documentation should be eliminated.
Solaris/SPARC, 3.0rc1.
