check_ping stuck on 'PENDING'

[jmoseley at corp.xanadoo.com]

I don't see a service definition for 'server-high-priority', nor do I see
where you are employing a check_ping operation, nor have you included the
check_period config for 24x7.

Nagios 3.0.6 on 10.4.11 OSX.

The service check is stuck in pending for the DGH server, and is returning
fine for 2 of the NMW servers, but not all of them.

Thanks,
