Problem: Nagios service check retry interval shorted than configured.

[Paul M. Dubuc]

I have nagios core 3.2.3 built on SuSE 11.1 and I've been noticing apparent
problem with service check retries.  The normal check interval is set to 7.5
and the retry interval is set to 1 minute.  I'm seeing entries like this in
the log:

[03-02-2011 16:44:39] SERVICE ALERT:
aps11;Extra_01.20;OK;SOFT;2;SELRC OK

[03-02-2011 16:44:29] SERVICE ALERT:
aps11;Extra_01.20;UNKNOWN;SOFT;1;SELRC UNKNOWN - Timeout (130 sec.)
reached


[03-02-2011 13:28:19] SERVICE ALERT: aps14;Extra_04.15;OK;SOFT;2;SELRC OK

[03-02-2011 13:28:09] SERVICE ALERT: aps14;Extra_04.15;CRITICAL;SOFT;1;SELRC 
CRITICAL

Why is there only 10 seconds between these pairs of checks?  Sometimes I see a 
20 or 30 second difference sometimes 60 seconds.  Most of them are less than 
30 seconds.  It's very inconsistent.  Any idea what could be causing this?

Thanks,
Paul Dubuc
