Service Definition for Passive Only Reports

We have a number of service which I don't want Nagios to actively monitor, instead Nagios will be updated by passive alerts which are generated by the service itself.

I've currently got a service definition setup, but haven't figured out how to get the service to not have an active check associated with it without any warnings being issued in the tactical overview page.  At the moment what i've done is setup an active check that does nothing and set a long between times check.  However, this isn't ideal.

Has anyone else setup a passive only service and managed to get the tactical overivew interface to not complain about active checks not being enabled on a specific host/service?

Many thanks,




Kris
