class=599543116-08122005>However, in the GUI, they are listed as disabled
problems, not unhandled problems. Which is an issue. When a freshness check
trigger a critical, I want it to be an unhandled problem, not a disabled one.
(Which is probably why I was using the original syntax.)</SPAN></FONT></DIV>

1.x and 2.x that would have causes the 1st syntax to stop working? Will
check_period now block freshess triggered active

<DIV></DIV>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>Did the methodology for passive service freshness
checks change at some point.</FONT> </P>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>I have my config set up as</FONT> </P>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>Check_period
none</FONT> <BR><FONT face=Arial
size=2>passive_checks_enabled 1</FONT> <BR><FONT face=Arial
size=2>Active_checks_enabled
1</FONT> </P>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>Which if I recall was to allow active checks to be
forced, as the freshness check would do, not not run on a regualar
basis.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>Yet from the recent docs, it looks like the proper
method should be.</FONT> </P>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>Check_period

<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>Which is it?</FONT> </P>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>I am trying to debug why freshness checking is no
longer working. (2.0b4 and 2.0b6) </FONT></P>
