Hi,
I just tried out what Michael said. It seems to work now. I changed service_reaper_frequency from 10 to 5.
But this seems not to be the real solution for this problem.
Belonging to the discussion about hardware. I'm using an P-III with 866 MHz and 1GB ram.
In the past I did controling a network with netsaint about 500 service checks every 3 minutes. This was build on an Celeron 400 and 128 MB and the same hardware was acting as an SNMP colletor for MRTG. -- No Problems.
Now I'm switched to Nagios on a new hardware and completly new software an only 250 checks only checking in 5 minutes and I ran into the trouble.

I have mine to the default (10)...when you say lower, do you mean down from
10?

Gentlemen,
I had exactly the same problem as a new Nagios user. As I kept
adding services for Nagios to monitor, I reached a point where the
scheduled check times were all random, and I had hundreds of nagios
processes
just sitting doing nothing.
The solution for me was to change the service_reaper_frequency value
to a lower value. This eliminated the problem. As I added more services,
the problem would reappear - but each time I lowered the value and it went
away.
I currently monitor about 438 http servers, and have the
service_reaper_frequency
value to set to 5 seconds.
