Changing Service/host state Manualy (or script)

[Assaf Flatto]

Hello List.
I have a peculiar situation .
I have 987 servers I need to ping in a specific time of day and send a report about them at the end 
of the time period ( that is no problem). 
The problem starts due to the fact that the servers status does not change in the time when I am not 
pinging them so in the next test cycle - their status hasn't changed and no notification is sent 
out .

I need to change them so I will get a report of which are down and which are up.

The solution I use now is, prior to the real test time period I defined a second time period where I 
run the check_dummy on all those server to set their status as OK ( no notification is sent for 
this change). 
Then I run the actual test and get the report .

Anyone got a more elegant way to solve this issue ?
