This is standard behavior if you have a host check_command that returns
non-OK when the host is unavailable.

You'll probably be interested in the *_timeout settings there as well.
These control the maximum amount of time allowed for each type of
action. Bear in mind that each plugin typically has its own timeout
value as well. You can see what those are and how to change them by
running 'plugin_name --help' and modifying the command definitions that
call that plugin appropriately.

Finally, you can run '/path/to/nagios -s /path/to/nagios.cfg' to get
information about scheduling and recommendations for some settings.
