Nagios only performs host checks if a service check on the host

fails. If all service checks are okay, then Nagios will just assume

that the host is up and not check it.  The hosts that report the

actual status either have or had one or more failed services.

 

If you want the data gathered by the host check command available

at all times, you'll need to make add it as a service check.
