Checking freshness Time period

[Sumit Malhotra]

Hi ,

 I am using nagios 1.2 and nsca in combination . Both works great together.

I have configured for freshness check evrey 15 minutes( As shown below) . In case it fails an alert is genrated via command noreport. It works fine for 24*7 monitoring of services

Problem comes when i want some service to be checked for 16*5 . I get alerts even when i have configured the service are configured for 16*5(check period) ( Although i am able to suppress teh alerts using notification period i.e. by setting it to 16*5) but still there is a red alert in the web interface .I would have loved to get a wall of "GREEN".
