[root at nagios nagios]# grep retention nagios.cfg
state_retention_file=/var/log/nagios/status.dat
retention_update_interval=60

I'm using the init scripts, using reload or restart. No -9 there.

Yes, full of data. Timestamp shows that it is updated:
[root at nagios nagios]# ll /var/log/nagios/status.dat
-rw-rw-r-- 1 nagios nagios 167055 Feb 29 15:22 /var/log/nagios/status.dat
(it is 15:22 right now)
