if i understand you correctly then one of your questions is, why it takes
nagios approx 10 minutes to notify?
imho this is because auf the combination of max_check_attempts and
retry_check_interval. if nagios gets reportet that the check_ping is critical
then i tries 3 times with interval of one minute to confirm this status.
after that it notfies.
ok.. example: host goes down -> (in worst case) 5 minutes later
(normal_check_interval) nagios checks -> gets critical -> 3 x 1 minutes to
confirm -> sending mail. ----> approx 10 mins. the same when recovering.
hope this answers a question.
