> Hi all,
> 
> I'm using nagios to monitor ~300 hosts and ~3000 services.
> When I host goes down, it often recovers without a nagios
> notification. Nagios sees the host as up, but does send a recovery
> notification. Notification history doesn't even show a "HOST UP"
> notification.
> Sometimes, I see a HOST UP. I'm working with a 24x7 interval, so it's
> not an interval issue.
