All,<br> according to the definition hard state is reached upon completing the max_check_attempt . This particular service status information is stating otherwise. This particular service check has max_check_attempt set to 3. However it looks like soft state changed into Hard with checking for 3 times. Is this a bug or am I missing something here. Please advise on this. Thanks<br>
