You also need to specify retention directives on per-host and
per-service basis --
retain_status_information: This directive is used to determine
whether or not status-related information about the host is retained
across program restarts. This is only useful if you have enabled state
retention using the retain_state_information directive. Value: 0 =
disable status information retention, 1 = enable status information
retention.
retain_nonstatus_information: This directive is used to determine
whether or not non-status information about the host is retained across
program restarts. This is only useful if you have enabled state
retention using the retain_state_information directive. Value: 0 =
disable non-status information retention, 1 = enable non-status
information retention.
