[Nagiosplug-help] Help with Passive Checks showing diabled in tactical overview

[Lee Scott]

I tried that with no luck.

The only way I can get them to clear is to leave passive and active checks
on, set the check_period to none and set the check command to check_dummy.

Otherwise if I disable active checks (as the nagios instructions say to do)
they show up as disabled.

So far this seems to be working but I'm just wondering if it will have any
unforeseen side effects.

change the check_period to none for the passive services/hosts

define service{
         use                     generic-service
         hostgroup_name          passive-linux-servers
         service_description     Users
         check_command           check_dummy
         check_period            none
}
