Hello,

I have a service defined like this:

define service{
        hostgroup_name                 hostgroup1
        service_description             it assistant trap
        servicegroups                   it assistant trap
        is_volatile                     1
        flap_detection_enabled          0
        active_checks_enabled           0
        passive_checks_enabled          1
        max_check_attempts              1
        check_period                    24x7
        check_command                   check_none
}

As you can see here, I have active checks disabled.  However, in the
web interface, it is showing active checks as enabled.

1. why?
2. If I have a host that has 5 active check services and 1 passive
check service and all 5 of the active services goes down, will it
consider the host down and suppress those notifications and only send
the host down alert?

Thanks!
