Hi Jim

Replies to the questions that you had asked about the issue:

1. I do not have any escalations defined.

2. Given below is the output from one of the host as found in the 
object.cache file:

define host {
         host_name       Windows-xxxx
         alias   Windows XP PC
         address x.x.x.x
         check_period    24x7
         check_command   check-host-alive
         contact_groups  xxxx
         notification_period     24x7
         initial_state   o
         check_interval  2.000000
         retry_interval  1.000000
         max_check_attempts      2
         active_checks_enabled   1
         passive_checks_enabled  1
         obsess_over_host        1
         event_handler_enabled   1
         low_flap_threshold      0.000000
         high_flap_threshold     0.000000
         flap_detection_enabled  1
         flap_detection_options  o,d,u
         freshness_threshold     0
         check_freshness 0
         notification_options    d,r,f,s
         notifications_enabled   1
         notification_interval   0.000000
         first_notification_delay        0.000000
         stalking_options        n
         process_perf_data       1
         failure_prediction_enabled      1
         retain_status_information       1
         retain_nonstatus_information    1
         }

Please let me know if any further inputs are needed.

Thanks
