Why are you doing freshness checking on master host? Is that of any use?
Please, correct me, if i'm wrong, but freshness checking is mainly for
active checking. Only idea when this is usable with passive is in
passive+active checks, when one services are configured to accept
passive check and doing active checks over some time (to check if we
have not missed somthing). Again, maybe I overlooked something important,
please correct me, if I'm terribly wrong.
Best regards
